Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Field Day at Higginsville Scene: A school yard. Fred, Claude, Ralph and Harley are seated on ground looking very glum. Fred. Gee! I´ll bet we´ll have the biggest kind of field-day this year if we can only find a place to hold it. It´s a shame if we have to give it up on that account. Claude. I´ll say it is. But we won´t give it up if we can help it. Ralph. how are we going to help it? We´ve tried every place we can think of. Fred. How about Jed White´s pasture? Claude. Or Mose Greiner´s lot? Ralph. You know as well as I do that there isn´t a level spot on it. we couldn´t have any games there. i tell you there´s something wrong with every place we stand any chance of getting. Harley. I can´t see why Tom Brent couldn´t have waited a week or two to plow up that lot. That was the best place anywhere around. Claude. I think this one next to the school ground is just as good or better. It´s a dandy if we could only get it. Fred. Yes if - if with a big I. Well never have a chance to use that lot so long as Jonas Witherspoon owns it. Harley. I should say not. old Jonas is the biggest old skinflint in seventeen counties. Ralph. I´ll say he´s the biggest one in seventeen states. Claude. Don´t you s´pose there´s any way we can get him to let use it? Fred. Are you getting nutty? There´s no way unless we hypnotize him. if anybody succeeds in doing it any other way I´ll buy the tickets for Ringling´s circus over to Greenville next month. Harley. Jimmy! you talk like a banker. Fred. I´ve got enough for that, but there isn´t any danger of having to use it. (Enter jasper with letter in hand.) Jasper. Hello, fellows! just got a letter from Hunstville. Fred. What do they say? Jasper. I´ll read it to you. (Opens letter and reads.) Mr. Jasper Howe: - We got your letter yesterday and the fellows here have decided they will play your nine on the day set by you. We´ve got a corking good nine this year, best we ever had. Hope you have too. Good bye. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
