First Sentence:	Billy and Minnie had their beds in the sleeping porch and they loved to sit and watch the last rays of the sun go down, for they went to bed very early, having an early supper before father came home.
Last Sentence:	Then, in the early morning, the gray lady who had watched all night would steal away from the beds, past the coat hanger and out of the window, and the rosy dawn would come in and wake them.
