Excerpt from Nan Sherwood at Rose Ranch: Or the Old Mexican's Treasure "And of course," drawled Laura Polk, she of the irrepressible spirits and what Mrs. Cupp called "flamboyant" hair, "she will come riding up to the Hall on her trusty pinto pony (whatever kind of pony that is), with a gun at her belt and swinging a lariat. She will yell for Dr. Beulah to come forth, and the minute the darling appears this Rude Rhoda from the Rolling Prairie will proceed to rope our dear preceptress and bear her off captive to her lair - " "My - goodness - gracious - Agnes!" exclaimed Amelia Boggs, more frequently addressed as "Procrastination Boggs," "you are getting your metaphors dreadfully mixed. It is a four-legged beast of prey that bears its victim away to its 'lair." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
