Dear, Friends There are three things
very much wonder at; the first is, that
childred should be so foolish as to throw
up stones, brickbats, and clubs into fruit
trees to knock down fruit if they would let

wise as to 20 after the young women, if
they would only stay at home the
young women would come after them.
