So I never went but once; though they "fed the multitude" as a religious function--and if there are any women who can cook bread and meat so it will melt in your mouth, it is the Pennsylvania Dutch women.

And the Bohn and Bemisdarfer women seem to me the best cooks among them, they and the Stricklers.

They taught most of our wives the best cookery they know.
I was disappointed when we started from Monterey Centre, with Judge Horace Stone and me in the front seat, and Virginia in the back.

As I started to say a while back, I had not been singing in the choir during the winter.

The storms kept me looking out for my stock until the snow went off in the February thaw that covered Vandemark's Folly with water from bluff to bluff; and by that time I had stayed out so long that I thought I ought to be coaxed back into the choir by Virginia or Grandma Thorndyke in order to preserve my self-respect.
