She wanted to take all the burr houses and green apple dolls they had made; and the ducks and a lot of corn and apples for Doris. She finally agreed that she would leave out all the other things if she could take one house of burrs and one green apple doll just to show how they were made and then a nice box of red cheeked eating apples to give to her little friend.
The foray was a crazy idea, and Shann wondered again why he had agreed to it.

"Adah is so good to me," cried Zillah, "that if Emily hadn't come I wouldn't have half enjoyed the day." "What does thee think of that view of the occasion, Richard?" asked Mr. Yocomb.

"Suppose we were to put them in the bag again, and you hold the bag, and we were to draw them out without looking," said Ellen Chauncey "as we used to do with the sugar-plums." As no better plan was thought of, this was agreed upon; and little Ellen shutting up her eyes very tight, stuck in her hand and pulled out a little bit of green morocco about the size of a dollar.
They asked if he would not call a special session to amend the bill. Again he agreed. The session was called, and the amendments were proposed.
