 ONE evening when the little boy, whose nights with Uncle Remus were as entertaining as those Arabian ones of blessed memory, had finished supper and hurried out to sit with his venerable patron, he found the old man in great glee. Indeed, Uncle Remus was talking and laughing to himself at such a rate that the little boy was afraid he had company. The truth is, Uncle Remus had heard the child coming, and, when the rosy-cheeked chap put his head in at the door, was engaged in a monologue2, the burden of which seemed to be—
 
"Ole Molly Har', W'at you doin' dar, Settin' in de cornder Smokin' yo' seegyar?"
 
As a matter of course this vague allusion4 reminded the little boy of the fact that the wicked Fox was still in pursuit of the Rabbit, and he immediately put his curiosity in the shape of a question.

Brer Rabbit, he sot up des ez cool ez a cowcumber, he did, en let em run on.
 
"Who was Miss Meadows, Uncle Remus?" inquired the little boy.
 
"Don't ax me, honey. She wuz in de tale, Miss Meadows en de gals wuz, en de tale I give you like hi't wer' gun ter me. Brer Rabbit, he sot dar, he did, sorter lam' like, en den3 bimeby he cross his legs, he did, and wink8 his eye slow, en up and say, sezee:
