tucks and lace insertion and every
thing. That amt anything; every
body has new ones with lace and
tucks, but l want you to know that |
had 'em, too. And I'd put 'em in my
top bureau drawer, right where |
knew where they were any time. But
that night l was wearing one of my
old ones. That amt anything; any

old nightgown.' And | knew | could
put my hand right on one of the new
ones all folded nice in that top bureau
drawer just few steps away. So l
just slips off the old one and lays it
on the foot of the bed, and steps
over to the bureau and-the bureau
amt there! Then thinks l real fast
like: That old one is lot better'n
nothin'" So starts for the foot of
