She has, according to traditions of her kind, a cat, and as the cat wandered at night it brought trouble to Fanny. Silas, a neighbor, entertaining home folk at a reunion, needed Ford's bed for the company, and sent him to Fanny's house to seek shelter for the night. Fanny and May had just spread fly-paper to catch a pesky fly, and the cat getting into it, after Ford had retired, and Fanny and May got 'neath the coverlets. Fanny was sure it was Ford prowling around. Ford imagined it was the old maid with designs on his freedom, and he escaped before she had a chance to drag him to the marriage market. Fanny and May get out to go to Silas's, and after a brave party returns to Fanny's house, they discover that Fanny's fear of burglars as unnecessary, and Boyd, a city "feller" captivated with the rosy-cheeked May, made known his intention of protecting her till death did them part.
