"Well," sez Josiah, "I shall go into the woods for a jag of maple, I won't see him, I dassent, for I should fall on him and destroy him if I did."

He filled the tank and lit the fire agin with Ury's help.

And Josiah would whisper to me every chance he got, "That now she had got back to help him, it was Ury's turn to go, and there wuzn't nothin' fair in his not havin' a tower." Josiah always stands up for his sect. And I would answer him every time, "That if I lived, Philury and Ury should go off on a tower together, like human bein's."

My head felt bad too, Coney Island had been too much for me
