watch out for the chuds grandma!

when polly & grandma were waiting for the subway on friday she told grandma all about the chuds that live underground in the dark. grandma laughed & said there's no such thing, child. there are however ghosts of all the irish immigrants who died digging the tunnels & they look for little girls who don't mind their parents & grandmas so hold my hand & stay close.

polly leaned forward so she could look into the tunnel. she never sees any aligators, molemen & chuds & now she has to watch out for irish ghosts too? how do all these people ride the subway every day?
