gator

Almost no one comes to ride the airboats or stare at the leathery monsters in the gator pit.

They get a chunk of lead right through one eye and usually that's the end of Mr. 'Gator.

"Indeed I would," answered the double-jointed tail 'gator, who could wobble his flippers both ways.

The 'gator was taken with a "fly" tied on a shark-hook, the hackled body being a squirrel's tail, with wings of a small seagull.

She gave Mrs. 'Gator twenty beautiful white eggs, and Mrs. 'Gator was perfectly happy.

Then one day Mrs. 'Gator crawled out on land and right away discovered what those legs were for.
