This family, you see, moved intoe the cabin Hank Fogarty and Jim Bond left when they went away, it's right acrost the 'royo from Dan Anderson's office, where we're goin' to eat to-morrer.

He's ouah bestest b'ah-dog, but he got so blame biggoty, las' time he was out, stuck his foot right intoe a b'ah's mouth. Now, Hec's lef' home, an' me lef home to 'ten' to Hec.
