Billy Writes Home Billy Writes Home
A boy brimming with news writes his father from the farm and railroad journey. He jokes about tan stockings, mosquitoes, and a misunderstanding with a horse and pig, requests a dollar and dog money, plans a barefoot summer, and asks to rent a pony while imagining a brave watchdog Lion for his mother. He mentions a lake swim goal and a future visit, closing with affectionate updates to his dad and mother.
