She was followed by Ebenezer Wopp whose coat seemed to cover some abnormal growth as though a watermelon might be lodged there. It was a bundle of socks for his wife to mend during her visit to Mrs. Mifsud’s ranch.,"They're wild if you make 'em wild, but if they get to know that you like 'em an' won't hurt 'em, they get real tame.
