I thought I would get some traps and try for some furs up therel live like an Indian; shoot and fish and trap.\u00a0 Boy ( her son) will soon be quite a lad and able to help me.\u00a0 His education won\u2019t be neglected, for one of my greatest pleasures is teaching him.\u00a0 I have a map of the world pinned up on the wall.\u00a0 I have Grey\u2019s Anatomy and he just loves it.\u00a0 At the table when I have cooked a hen he gravely tells Daddy to give him the femur or the radius and ulna.<\/p>\n
