"Good night," she called softly from the doorway.,The “half moon” was brought forthwith and was eaten with great relish.，"And you mean to tell me that she hatches the egg laid by the mean, bad black bird, Billy?"，“No, that’s why I told you,” said John.，"Well, why not? I wish the first to arrest the second."Truth now glimmered upon the mind of Julia, but so faintly, that instead of enlightening, it served only to increase her perplexity.
