Once. upon a time there was a ;

pretty little girl, Her mother died
and she was only four years old,
Her dad was at work and there
was not a neighbor unless she
walked three miles away from
home but she was not allowed
te go out of sight of the house,
The little girl's name was Shar
on,

One day Sharon walked a mile
from her-house, That night when
Sharon’s dad, Mr, Bartlet, came
home from work, he lookedinthe
house and Sharon was not there,

Then Sharon heard something
say to her: ‘What are you doing
herve? I will kl), kill, Kill you’?
Just then Sharon screamed and
ran out of the woods as fast as
she could until she got home,

Just.then she saw her dad hold.
ing a belt. Then she looked back
and saw a bloody man walking
towards her, She ran to her dad
and said; “Please Dad, don’t
whip me, Look over there, Look
at that bloody man, He is going
to kill us,"? ~

Just then she began to cry.

Sharon’s Dad put down the belt
and carried Sharon to her bed,
Then he picked up his gun and
went out and got some bandages
and walked out and shot the man.
Then he put the bandages on him,

The next day Sharon’s dad got
married and Sharon’s mother had
a baby and she -let Sharon take
care of it and they lived happy
for ever after.
