He placed his second cat on the floor, a gaunt creature, brindled in many colors, with great scared-looking eyes. “She’s afraid of everybody. She never had any home till I brought her here, poor thing! Just kicked from door to door. And Geewhillikins, too—he was a tiny kitten put in a sack to drown out in the creek.

I should think the first drop would have wakened you.” Her breakfast finished, Betty sought the company of Moses, who was in a small shed adjoining the kitchen.
