preston when he wants to dodge any

he opened the book at random and
read a passage slowly, and with some
effort, but not with the parrot-like

when word stuck him, he spelled it
out, pronounced II. and then went on,
getting real expression into the lines.
His political views are that "Roose.

Haven does many chores, such as
splitting kindling and building the
fire. When he splits kindling, he
plays he is Abraham Lincoln and
when no draws maps, he is Christie
