"We might have had some eggs, seeing it's Easter," said the man, passing one of the largest potatoes to the little girl. "Lutty Williams' mother colored hers. Lutty said I might have one of them, if I'd come over for it." "Guess I wouldn't go to Lutty Williams' for no eggs, if I was in your place!" said the father.
