Poor boy, that was a terrific thrashing,
and, to make it worse it had been promised
to him on the evening before, so that he
had been dreading it, and shivering over it

Tapped his wings and crowed vociferously.
A turkey cock was strutting on the grass
by the old cherry tree.

cast a glance about him, as if to see if any
body was near.

morning wind, and while the low, tenderly
mellow flowing of the river was distinctly
audible, and the song of the finch increased
in volume, and the bleating of the new
lambs in the meadow died in f1uttering
echoes under the barn, and while the fra

from head to foot, took from under his
jacket double sheep-skin which, with an
ineffable smile, he tossed into the closet.
Then, as the yeliew flicker rose rapidly
from the grass, Billy walked off whistling
