(Dogs 38)
When Mr. Dee first got the hang of our house, which is long with wide window sills, he started to patrol it. Sitting in one window, he would peer thru his long eyebrows until he saw someone going by, a cat on the hill, not country cars, then he would give the alarm, running the length of the house, jumping on each window sill as he went. After a few weeks of this, I decided this was too hard on the paint as well as the ears and got thru to him it wasn't wanted.
Polly Kay (1904-1997) vividly and with humor describes her life in Richland Center, Wisconsin, in excerpts from letters to her son Skip written after 1949, including her 5 last years in an old folks' home.
