The monkey swayed painfully from the back of the excited Jethro. “Yes, Mosey, I jist want to go to my mornin’-glory garding to tell it good-night.” She rubbed her sleepy tear-stained eyes. “How nice, Betty,” answered Nell, who had threaded her needle and was now prepared to join those already busily stitching away. “You and I will travel down the ages side by side.” “Elmo saw some gween and white faywies,” he fabricated, “and wanted Mudgie to see them too.”.
