It was a bundle of socks for his wife to mend during her visit to Mrs. Mifsud’s ranch.,“Gosh! Wisht Betty was here right this minute. Mebbe I’m dyin’. Hope nobody starts twangin’ a harp. My nose is worser’n ever!”,Nell Gordon’s eyes were wet with something else than mirth when Betty entered the house later with her pet in her arms.
