And so it wuz in everything raised in our own country and all over the world.
And there wuz a display of insects, bees and everything relating to honey and wax.

Silk worms and their work and products, cochineal and all kinds of useful insects and their work, and hurtful insects and methods of destroying them, and so on and so on and so on.

I couldn't tell all I see if I should try a week, and what we see wuzn't a drop to a fountain.

Well, from there we went to Horticultural Hall, or we had started for there when Josiah made a observation about the size of a potato he had seen in Agricultural Hall, that I had to in the cause of Truth and Duty object to, the size he mentioned was a twelve-quart pail, and I said: "Josiah, take off a few quarts from that pail.

For the good of your soul take off two quarts anyway." "Not a quart!" sez he, "nor a spunful." Well, we had words about it, Blandina as usual siding with her uncle, and it ended with their goin' back with a string, which Josiah produced from his pocket to measure it, I offering to stay by a certain statute till they got back.

And as I stood there lookin' at the stiddy passin' crowd and philosophizin' on it as my nater is, I wuz accosted by a strange lookin' man, as I took it to be (I say It for reasons named hereafter).
"Josiah Allen's wife, I am happy to meet you; I knew you at once though it is so long since we met." In the meantime it had gripped holt of my hand with fervor.
I drawed back and sez, "Sir!" (I thought it favored that gender most) "Sir, I think you are mistook." "Oh, no, you are Josiah Allen's wife; I am Dr.Mary Walker." "Oh!" sez I in a relieved axent, as I returned the warm grasp of her hand, "I am glad to meet you, Mary." She's done some good things in her life, takin' care of poor wounded soldiers, etc., and I honored her for 'em.
