I couldn't help wondering what Jenkins would have said if he could have seen me in that tub.
That reminds me to say, that two days after I arrived at the Morrises', Jack, followed by all the other boys, came running into the stable.
He had a newspaper in his hand, and with a great deal of laughing and joking, read this to me: "Fairport Daily News, June 3d.

In the police court this morning, James Jenkins, for cruelly torturing and mutilating a dog, fined ten dollars and costs." Then he said, "What do you think of that, Joe?
Five dollars apiece for your ears and your tail thrown in.

That's all they're worth in the eyes of the law.

Jenkins has had his fun and you'll go through life worth about three-quarters of a dog.

I'd lash rascals like that.
