JONASS STORIES


Book Description

Excerpt from Jonas's Stories: Related to Rollo and Lucy They went on very prosperously; and sometimes Rollo and Lucy used to go and ride in Jonas's wagon. They liked this better than riding in the carryall, because they could see out better for the wagon was not covered at all. In such cases, Jonas let them sit upon the seat, which had a buffalo skin spread over it in place of a cushion; and he himself would sit upon the end of a leather trunk, which was placed under the seat, in such a mamier that one end projected just far enough in front of it to make a good cricket for Jonas to sit upon and drive. So the children had good accommodations in the wagon, and they liked it very much. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
