Excerpt from Wawona: An Indian Story of the Northwest
(What? there is a glorious sunset outside? and I must come and see it? and tell you all a story about the old times? Wait a moment till I roll up my patch-work. But you all will be getting tired of Grandmother's stories - oh yes - there is a new cousin among you today! What is that? You love the old stories better than any of the new ones? Very well, I am ready, and it gives me great happiness to know that you are so fond of hearing about Wawona the Wise and her great Masterpiece. What a splendid sunset indeed! To think there are some poor children and young folks who have to live in great cities where the houses tower like frowning walls keeping the sun away and rarely do they see the moon and the stars, and live with them not at all.
