As they neared the long row of brown-fruited sumachs Mrs. Wilson paused and stood in a listening attitude. "Say, isn't that Willium's varmint of a crow settin' up there on that ash?" she asked, pointing to the slender tree growing among the sumachs.,“I don’t know.”，Maurice meekly followed his mother inside and slipped into his accustomed place at the table.，"Do you think that someone has stolen the stick, Maurice?" said the major. "Someone from outside, I mean."，“Well, now, is that so?
