We stayed all night and us boys slept in straw . None of us had ever slept on straw before . We got home in the morning . That is all I can write about our visit to Cousin Mattie 's . FELIX KING . MY WORST ADVENTURE It 's my turn to write it so I suppose I must . I guess my worst adventure was two years ago when a whole lot of us were coasting on Uncle Rogers hill . Charlie Cowan and Fred Marr had started , but half-way down their sled got stuck and I run down to shove them off again . Then I stood there just a moment to watch them with my back to the top of the hill . While I was standing there Rob Marr started Kitty and Em Frewen off on his sled . His sled had a wooden tongue in it and it slanted back over the girls ' heads . I was right in the way and they yelled to me to get out , but just as I heard them it struck me . The sled took me between the legs and I was histed back over the tongue and dropped in a heap behind before I knew what had happened to me . I thought a tornado had struck me . The girls could n't stop though they thought I was killed , but Rob came tearing down and helped me up . He was awful scared but I was n't killed nor my back was n't broken but my nose bled something awful and kept on bleeding for three days . Not all the time but by spells . DAN KING . THE STORY OF HOW CARLISLE GOT ITS NAME This is a true story to . Long ago there was a girl lived in charlotte town .
I dont know her name so I cant XXXXX it and maybe it is just as well for Felicity might think it wasnt romantik like Miss Jemima Parrs .
