she always had. In the family
these two are known as a team

Not long ago at a White House

In fact, if the stories that the

in pranks and mischief.
Because she never could take
dare and was acutely miserable if
one of the boys or their play
mates had done anything she had
not tried, she spent most of her
childhood nursing scratches, cuts
and Sprains, on one occasion even

Some of the escapades of her
