an awful school, where she had an
awful teacher, who gave her awful
/ lessons cut Of aNful books. Every
I day she was aWfula hungry and she
ate an awful amount Of ford, so that
she looked awful healthy. She went
/ to an awful church and her minister
/ was an awful preacher. When she
/ took an awful walk she climbed aw-
ful hills, and when she got awful tired
! she sat daFu under an awful tree to
rest herself. In summer she found
( the weather awful hot, and in winter
awful cold. When 1t didn't rain

I all the time in an awful state and IL
