LETTER FROM WINKIE WEST.
Moreland, Oct. 12, 1875
CHIPPY, old boy, it seems to me that I never had such fun in all my
life as 1 had last summer. It was at a place called Woodbury. You
wont find it on any map, I guess; but that is the real name. When
school was out in June, we staid about home for a week or two, and,
when a letter came from Uncle Jacob and Aunt Hannah, asking us if
we didn't want to come and slay the rest of the summer on the farm,
We got the letter about dinner-time ; but I wasn't hungry after that.
Mother would n't let me go and tell Walt about it until after dinner.
We did n't have anything extra; but it did take them the longest
me to get through.
Well, you can bet that Walt was glad when I told him, and we
began to get ready at once. Walt's old rifle had to be got down and
cleaned; then we had to lay in some powder and shot. I had to get
me a new pocket-knife, and then there was a lot of other things we
got ready, which I have forgotten now.
