Slow down girl; what is it?
The Hollists have a new horse.
Your Pa said Mr. Hollist wanted to get a new draft horse.
No, no, no, no. Their new baby is Horse, they named him Horse.
You must have heard it wrong, maybe it was Hoss.
No, when they brought the baby to the front at church
They said his name would be Horse.
Are you sure?
I heard it right, they called him Horsey Roy Hollist
Ok, ok, get my basket down so we can call on the Hollists.
I will never hear the end of this until we hear it from them
