whirl thar switches, but she out lard 'em

Now | didn't mind this, cause knode
what she wanted, and Roob was les thcbov
10 give it TO her. But when cum to Mrs.
Browns skoolhous and see the young gals
gwine on thar, see sumthin wuz loose.
Skool hadn't took il, and they all was
siandin outside the gate, and ducks playin
IN mud puddle IN the spring o'thc year,
want nuthin 10 um. They didn't run
bout and play like gals ginrally do, but
peard to keep pretty much in one place;
but such shlvrin, cavortin, didapperin,
wabblng and wrigglin, never did See
Look like they'd got into hester see
ticks and was afraid to skratch. knode
sumthlng was ropg. knode it, 81 to my

IN anyway 'Hoccum the men don't wab-
bic then seq !. Rite smart chance of
pepull was over to Mr. Aliens store, and
l asked what was the wimmin folks goin
on that way bout. They told me it was
the new fashun'd dance, Tcetcrin they cal'd
1t, a sorter fashunable shakin Quakerism.
Soon as heard that, | turnt my sorrel rite
round and made a strait shoot for home;
but | hadn't got fur, ies crost the creek,
belo town, when look'd over the fence
and thar sec Mrs. .Tailo's Judy gethrin

With that | rid on home and said nuthip
