Around the World with Josiah Allen's Wife

Our son, Thomas Jefferson, and his wife, Maggie, have been wadin through a sea of trouble. He down with inflamatory rumatiz so a move or jar of any kind, a fly walkin over the bedclothes, would most drive him crazy; and she with nervious prostration, brought on I spoze by nussin her pardner and her youngest boy, Thomas Josiah (called Tommy), through the measles, that had left him that spindlin and weak-lunged that the doctor said the only thing that could tone up his system and heal his lungs and save his life would be a long sea voyage. He had got to be got away from the cold fall blasts of Jonesville to once. Oh! how I felt when I heard that ultimatum and realized his danger, for Tommy wuz one of my favorites. Grandparents ort not to have favorites, but I spoze they will as long as the world turns on its old axletrys. He looks as Thomas J. did when he wuz his age and I married his pa and took the child to my heart, and got his image printed there so it wont never rub off through time or eternity. Tommy is like his pa and he haint like him; he has his pas old ways of truthfulness and honesty, and deepwhy good land! there haint no tellin how deep that child is. He has got big gray-blue eyes, with long dark lashes that kinder veil his eyes when hes thinkin; his hair 10 is kinder dark, too, about the color his pas wuz, and waves and crinkles some, and in the crinkles it seems as if there wuz some gold wove into the brown. He has got a sweet mouth, and one that knows how to stay shet too; he haint much of a talker, only to himself; hell set and play and talk to himself for hours and hours, and though hes affectionate, hes a independent child; if he wants to know anything the worst kind he will set and wonder about it (he calls it wonner). He will say to himself, I wonner what that means. And sometimes he will talk to Carabi about itthat is a child of his imagination, a invisible playmate he has always had playin with him, talkin to him, and I spoze imaginin that Carabi replies. I have asked him sometimes, Who is Carabi, I hearn you talkin to out in the yard? Where duz he come from! How duz he look? ......Buy Now (To Read More)
