Mister Ron's Basement #1769

We love the stories of W. L. Alden here in the Basement, mainly because they are truly funny. Once again, today's tale is one of those that get funnier the more you think about it. From 1878, Alden reports on the writing of a precocious nine year old girl in 'Carrie's Comedy.'

Time: approx ten and a half minutes
