Who else could steam and bake such mealy leaves of brown bread, brown as plum-pudding, yet with no suspicion of sogginess? Who such soda-biscuits, big, feathery, tasting of cream, and hardly needing butter? And green-apple pies! Could such candied lower crusts be found elsewhere, or more delectable filling?

Mr. Jones, he's well acquainted with him, an' he says 'at Monty's got as many lives as a cat. He's fell down-stairs, an' out of a cherry-tree, an' choked on fish-bones, an' had green-apple colic, an' been kicked by Squire Pettijohn's bull, an' tumbled into Foxes' Gully, and that ain't but six things that might ha' killed him an' didn't. Besides, Monty's a good runner.
"Just after Morpheus had got both my shoulders to the shuck mattress I hears a houseful of unbecoming and ribald noises like a youngster screeching with green-apple colic. I opens my door and calls out in the hall for the widow lady, and when she sticks her head out, I says: 'Mrs. Peevy, ma'am, would you mind choking off that kid of yours so that honest people can get their rest?
"Captain John feels bad about the loss of his sail," said Mr. Randall, as the sloop's boat pulled off from the shore. "Yes, he does; but it was his own fault," replied Lawry. "He paid too much attention to his dinner at the time." "That's true; he was very fond of the green-apple pies." "Well, they were good," added the young pilot. "I'm sorry he lost his sail."
He leaped over the piles of lumber to the forecastle, and had cast loose the peak-halyard, when Captain John tumbled up the companionway in time to see that he had lingered too long over the green-apple pie, and that one piece would have been better for his vessel, if not for him. "Let go the throat-halyard!" roared he. "Down with the mainsail! down with the mainsail!"
By the time he had disposed of the last piece of green-apple pie on board, the Missisque was before Port Rock, which was the home of the young pilot, and he saw his father's ferry-boat at the shore as he came on deck. "Will you put me ashore here, Captain John?" asked Lawry. "Yes, I will; and I'm glad to get rid of you," replied the captain testily.
They had the lamb and peas, as I said, and at that date one kind of meat was considered enough. They had green-apple pie. There was a very early pie-apple on the farm and George had brought some down for his mother. He was well and happy as he could be "without the folks," and he shook his head a little ambiguously about Uncle Faid's method, and those of Mr. Finch.
I have never in my life been the least bit afraid of anything, except something within my own body, from the hideous pain of my green-apple days to the pain I had felt as I talked beside the piano with Nickols in New York, a thousand miles away; but something made me pause just for a second in the pantry doorway before I stepped into the light upon the porch.
Grandma sat down beside her what was this she was saying about "green-apple pie"? Missy wished to ask her about it green-apple pie green-apple pie Before she knew it she was off to sleep again. It was the next morning while she was still lying in bed, that Missy made the Great Resolve. That hour is one when big Ideas all kinds of unusual thoughts are very apt to come.
