tales of danes and males which set
my hearers staring. And often guys
would black my eyes and split my
beak asunder, and break a slat and
spoilt my hat and bid me go to
thunder. The gossip's trade has
never made for peace and friendly
feeling; the gossip's life is full of
strife until he hits the ceiling. A
tale | told of William Mold. that
proved to be fable. and William
came and climbed my frame and
spoiled my northeast gable. | lay
in bed with poulticed head, and
there reviewed my labors, and there
! swore to spread no more punk
stories of my neighbors. And since
that vow my bulging brow has no
contusions on it in peace | sit and
calmly knit, or write cheer-up
