tin, matches and all!!!
When Black Noggy found herself in the Muggers' dark inside, she
wanted to see where she was, so she felt for the match- box and took
out a match and lit it. But the Mugger's teeth had made holes in the
kerosene tin, so that the flame of the match caught the kerosene, and
BANG!! the kerosene exploded, and blew the old Mugger and Black
Noggy into little bits.
At the fearful noise Little Black Mingo and the Mongoose came
running out, and there they found Black Noggy and the old Mugger all
blown to bits.
So Little Black Mingo and the Mongoose got the nice little house for
their very own, and there they lived happy ever after. And Little Black
Mingo got the Mugger's beard for her seat, and the Mongoose got
Black Noggy's handkerchief for his. But he was so wee he used to put it
on the Mugger's nose, and there they sat, and had their tea every

evening.
