Early one THANKSGIVING____ morning, many years ago on the old FRONTIER____, a SETTLER____ stood before his lonely CABIN____ with his trusty GUN____ and faithful DOG____ ready to hunt the TURKEY____ he needed for dinner, hoping no INDIAN____s would spoil his feast. Whistling to his DOG____, the SETTLER____ shouldered his GUN____ and started down the forest trail.
Meantime, the INDIAN____, also with a DOG____, came down the forest trail from the other direction. Just at that moment a fat TURKEY____ flew between them. Out flew an arrow, off went the GUN____, down fell the TURKEY____, in bounded the DOG____s, up rushed the INDIAN____ and the SETTLER____. "It's mine," claimed the SETTLER____.
"Ugh - him mine," said the INDIAN____. "Grrr," snarled the DOGS____. The noise of the argument shook the CABIN____ and awoke the whole FRONTIER____. But the TURKEY____, which was only stunned, took off unsteadily and flew in the open door of the CABIN____, where it was promptly captured by the INDIAN____ and the SETTLER____ and the DOG____s. And thus, THANKSGIVING____ came to a lonely CABIN____ on the old FRONTIER____.
