 T thought yesterday she was preach ing sermon or had gone crazy, for 1t took me ~ time to get the hard

 and as I was coming through a piece of
 woods one of those biz owls called out 1lwitt a gruh voice. Who is Who?' l

 a. sharp run and soon got out of his
 way before he could ask me who I was EWhen I got home and told the folks

 Well, I think it's about time. to go
 home to dinner. I hope the folks will
