Subject: Meddle in NCTE book



The "meddle" passage is from the transcription of Emily Pettigrew Morris,

a 14-year-old from Memphis:



"You know she just be walkin. And she made up funny. And ney was meddlin

her. And her sister wear glasses. And ney were meddlin her too." [I made no

attempt to preserve italics for omitted Cs.]
