Description

Stewart Allman wanted William's sledge, so he "Tom Fobbled" it for himself. Everyone knew that only marbles could be Tom Fobbled, but Stewart Allman made up his own rules for games. William's grandfather was a smith, and he built another sledge. It was strong and fast, made from an old oak loom. This is the first version of one of the stories that later became part of the "Stone Book Quartet" 72p. illus.
