When he hears one he runs like litening and gets under the sofer-cushions or inside the peyanno or crawls in under the slates till it is all over. He use to live in a old licht-house once. He is a marvelus mixture of the most commical humour and the most beutiful paythoss. He is a reggular Ramsgitsingey at cricket. He was to have gone to Orstralia with MrStodert but they thought it was better for the Empire that he should not. You should see him snick them among the slippers (I hope that is right.) When he goes in to bat the fielders all come close up to him just to take hints in batting.

The Tobymp or LuciwitsThe Tobymp or LuciwitsThis brilliant little Creature perches up in a gallery and peeps through the ralings and brings out the most wonderfull pennytrating notes. He prettends to be asleep but he is all the wide-awaker really. He has the most lovely head of hair—they say it is some kind of Essence what he has made up himself that makes it come so luxuryous. He rubs it into the members too sometimes but he has such a plessant skilful little way of doing it all round and just touching on the points of their bills that they rather like it I believe

She has a terrible fassinating kind of hero who goes out to battle talking several langwages with a gardeeniya and lavinder kid gloves on and carrying a ormerlew lunch-basket inlade with plovers eggs. He makes little rings with his cigerret smoke while he conkuers the enemy. He is a mixture of Sandow and Cupid and Bobby Spencer and Richard Curdyleong. She is very kind hearted to other Animals. She was thought rather risky for girls-schools sometime ago untill all the MrsTankyrays started dragging their "parsts" about—then it didn't matter
