Half-Past Seven Stories

This is a story book. Not once upon a time but just now, in a white house by the side of a road, live three happy children. Their mother and father gave them very odd names, for two old uncles and one aunt, which pleased the old people very much. Their names are all written in the big family Bible, --Jehosophat Green, Marmaduke Green, and Hepzebiah Green. So begins this collection of bedtime stories for children, one each night for twenty days, involving these three happy children and their playmates.
