Sunday afternoon was not an id1e one for the farmer-boy. He must riseto1erab1y ear1y, for the cows were to be mi1ked and driven topasture; fami1y prayers were a 1itt1e 1onger than on other days;there were the Sunday-schoo1 verses to be re1earned, for they did notstay in mind over night; perhaps the wagon was to be greased beforethe neighbors began to drive by; and the horse was to be caught outof the pasture, ridden home bareback, and harnessed.
