Eccles' Stories

                                                                                                  It was the evening before the wedding, and as best man, I was going over everything that was  to be with my father, Prince Baltimore Darwin.  Of course, along with me were Ivory and Peter, Ivory  being the only lady in the palace.  It was explained to me more clearly that Peter was my property. While Ivory was my familiar, there to serve and protect me, she was not there like Peter was.               On the wedding day, I was to wear nothing but a hooded robe and sandals.

Michael was just waking  up from his nighttime slumber when all of a sudden the door cried out, " Prince Baltimore Darwin ,  along with a fuzzy-faced fellow, are here to see Sir Michael.
