NIGHTS WITH UNCLE REMUS I MR. FOX AND MISS GOOSE: IT had been raining all day so that Uncle Remus found it impossible to go out. The storm had begun, the old man declared, just as the chickens were crowing for day, and it had continued almost without intermission. The dark gray clouds had blotted out the sun, and the leafless limbs of the tall oaks surrendered themselves drearily to the fantastic gusts that drove the drizz1e fitfully before them. The lady to whom Uncle Remus belonged had been thoughtful of the old man, and 'Tildy, the house-girl, had been commissioned to carry him his meals. This arrangement came to the knowledge of the little boy at supper time, and he lost no time in obtaining permission to accompany 'Tildy. Unde Hemus made a great demonstration over the thoughtful kindness of his "Miss Sally." "Ef she aint one blessid little woman," he said. in his simple fervent way, "den dey aint none un urn 'roun' in deze parts."
