First Sentence: I rejoice in the possession of a wealthy old uncle, named Bumble Cheek, who used to come around and see me, and bring me cigars, and occasionally, if he felt extra fine on account of being temporarily rid of the gout, he would give me a dollar bill and tell me to go off and squander. (Boys of New York edition)
Last Sentence: One of those pleasant old fellows, you know, who live in a cave in the woods, and feed on rats and field mice. (Boys of New York edition)
Now, I suppose when my respected uncle leaves this world, he won't leave me a cent. (Happy Days edition)
