First Sentence: "There's William in his Sunday clothes, and I'll be bound he's going out to see some girls," said old Mrs. Wacks, as her son, a youth of twenty summers, or somewhere thereabout, faded out of the front door, attired in a suit that Solomon in all his glory would not have worn for two dollars and a half a day; "and he'll not be home until after midnight," she added with a sigh. (Good News edition)
Last Sentence: William has not lost his confidence in the hydrophobia tester, but he will not experiment with it again until his eyes assume their normal color, and then he will exercise a little more care in the selection of subjects. (Good News edition)
