I live in a little railroad town in the northern part of Alabama. I
have a black rabbit and a white one. Their names are Jesse and
Bessie. They are very cunning. I keep them in a little paled yard.
They have a little house in the centre of the yard. I have a cat
named Ed. When he wants to come in, he will shake the door until
some one lets him in. When I roll a rock on the ground, he will run
after it. I have seventeen chickens. I went fishing to-day, and
caught fifty-one, but they were little fellows.
