They got ! norphun boy next door; ne
come there yesterday.
And he has six toes on one foot and
double joints they say;
They brought him from the 'gylum and
his hair is kind of red.
And he hasn't any parents, for his ma
and pa are dead
When we were up in Johnson's barn this
afternoon s'pose
You'll not believe it-but he hung head
downward by his toes.
And he can skin the cat and give
jump up in the air
And turn fiip-flap and not touch fin-
ger anywhere.
And he can wriggle both his ears and
look cross-eycd and play
The jewsharp, or, at least. he says so
anyway.
And all the girls think no one else can
do what he can do;
almost wisht sometimes that 1 would be-
