The best of all was a letter from Jimmy, scrawled with his left hand. “Moses stan’s on his head so’s his brains’ll filter back into place,” teased Mrs. Wopp. Billy was suddenly overcome with bashfulness when the child, quite composed, came forward to meet him. A bath, a shampoo, and new clothes had transformed her from a tangled, smudged little girl to a lovely miss with a high-bred air foreign to the childish manners Billy understood.
