Some warm milk is offered it ; but it turns its head from the basin . It is placed in a roofless corn-crib , on a bed of hay , with food before it ; and Fabens works briskly for half a day , building a house for it . The time now is of leas value , as no crop is suffering , and he had designed a leisure day of this . About one o'clock the house is completed , and the lovely captive is removed to its new home , as gently as you would lay a meek babe in its bed . They sat down to dinner , and the fawn was the subject of all conversation . `` It shall be Clinton 's pet and playmate , '' said Julia ; `` and it shall have a bell on its neck , and eat bread and berries shortly out of his hand . I wish little Fanny was big enough to notice the pretty thing , and put her hand on it . ''
