[Dotty Dimple’s Flyaway by Sophie May]@TWC D-Link bookDotty Dimple’s Flyaway CHAPTER III 7/10
"Shtop!" But the paws kept on. "O, Diny," said Flyaway, as pussy's tail disappeared round a corner,--"O, Diny, her don't want to go to heaven!" Then Flyaway sat down in the sand, and pulled off one of the big boots. "Um won't walk," said she; but, before she had time to pull off the second one, a dog came along and frightened her so she tried to run, though she only hopped on one foot, and dragged the other.
She did not know what the matter was till she fell down and the boot came off of itself, after which she could walk very well.
What cared she that both "Hollis's" new boots were left in the road, ready to be crushed by wagon wheels? She kept on and kept on; but where was that blue hill going to? It moved faster than she did. "Makes me povokin'," said she, giving Dinah a shake.
"Um runs away and away, and all off!" Sometimes she remembered she was going to heaven, and sometimes she forgot it.
She was on the way to the "Pines," and many little flowers grew by the road-side.
