noon
I had to take the lantern and go out and rescue him , and I hai n't goin ' to tell how he kicked that wheel-barrow when he re _ cog _ nized it , and the language he hurled at it . It wuz onbecomin ' a deacon , and I told him so . Next to the Hall of Electricity , the great onseen Wizard that sways the world , this Hall of Air-Ships wuz interestin ' to me , for it is the transportation of the future . Baby eyes blinkin ' now at the canopys of their cribs will look up and see the blue sky above 'em cleft by the white wings of great ships of the air sailin ' to and fro with no treacherous rocks to dash aginst , no forests to subdue or mountains to tunnel , no roads to break , to and fro , back and forth shining white aginst the crimson sunset , aginst the rosy dawn , and the cloudless noon . Oh , what a sight for the eyes that will behold 'em ! I wish I could stand it till then , but most probable I ca n't , and I would n't want to anyway if Josiah could n't be there to see 'em with me ; and his health hai n't what it wuz , his liver is bad . But I think sometimes that Josiah and I may look on and behold this glorious sight from some cloudy terrace of the Better Country ; I 'd love to if we could .
