Katy Did and Tommy the Trout Tale
A long fragmentary tale blends Katy did and a boy named Tommy who wishes to be a trout. Tommy’s spell ends with a dream of swimming, a moral about curiosity, and a return to his human life as Aleck contemplates future duties. Included are brief notes on sparrows, a Prussian cherry story, and grim riverboat violence reports.
