An illustration from The brownies through the Union, 1895, leaf 88
scarce a legOr hand or head could move a peg;While here and there a reddened faceWas peeping from some open space;But he who lay upon the ballWas under, out of sight of all.It looked as if each Brownie thereWould sm-ely need a smgeons care.They dragged each other round and round,_And back and forth… … In spite of all the teams could sayThat none except themselves should play,Sometimes excitement rided the bandTill every Brownie took a hand 71 THE BEOWNIES IN CONNECTICUT.
