Given in marriage by ber parents, the bride wore a traditiot,,ral style gown designed with a pleated front Hlow HenLjr by Betty Marti A year ago my son, Ernie, became the happy owner of a deligbtful white Californian rabbit, whom we promptly named Henry. We couldn't tell you wby we chose such a name for a rabbit; it just seemed the most fitting for this particular animal. Henry spent ail summer in bis elegant chrome cage with pink fittings, remaining outdoors for as long as the sun shone. Then, as night fell, he was brougbt into the bouse to spend the dark hours in safety and comfort,, out of reach of the many mharauding dogs our neigbbourhood seems to attract. Sometimes we removed the bottom of the cage so he could feel the grass growing between bis toes and imagine he was as free as any rabbit should be. To counter- ct the possibility of monotony, be was placed in a different location each day - surrounded by brilliant dandelions or sbowered witb apple blossoms - but be was- not in the least fooled by these organza panel and a square neckline covered with 'seed pearîs. A long train of French lace was a feature of the gown. A floor length trailing veil of organza was edged witb French lace. Long sleeves. with an organza ruf fie covered the top of band. The bride carried a bouquet of silk flowers of yellow roses, pale yellow iris, white anemones, green English ivy mixed with air fern. The maid of honor was the brides sister Cheryl Koss, and bridesmaids were Yvonne Van de Belt, Valerie Denhertog, cousins of the bride, and Linda Norton, sister of the groom. Best man was the groom's brother Dan Norton, and the ushers were Barry and Tom Norton, brothers of the groom and Allan Gray. Receiving the guests at a French Buffet dinner at the New Dutch Oven, the bride's mother wore a gown of oyster color with a mauve orcbid corsage. Leaving for a honeymoon in a cottage at Parry Sound, the bride wore a rust and cream colored suit and the groom a blue suit. Mr. and Mrs. Norton are now residing at il Peters Pike, Orono. -Photo.by Gould Photo Shop- Became Henrietta tactics. He dug and burrowed witb a dedication I' have seldom seen in man or beast, and once or twice, wbile our backs were turned, be engineered the most ingenious escapes. He was, bowever, always rounded up in our vegetable garden, feeding off succulent carrot tops or munching on luscious lettuce leaves.*If it had flot been for tbe close proximity of this garden I'm afraid he would have been lost to us forever. He just couldn't resist stopping off there on bis way out,,and this was always bis undoing. One day a heavy and totally unexpected sbower of ramn peited hlm while we were ahl out. Ernie was already on bis way home f romn school in the bus and I, doing some shopping' in town, immediately got into the car and beaded homeas fast as the speed limait would allow. Ernie beat *me to it and as I pulled into the garage there he was, the saddest-looking littie boy you ever saw. " Mum, " be wailed, "Henry got out and I can't.find him anywbere. As I got off the bus I tbought I saw hlm running through the field by the higbway but he isn't there. He's just disappeared! " "Neyer mind," 1 said, "let's look in the garden." "But 1 looked there too," came the reply, "and he definitely wasn't there! " "Come" I said, and headed for the garden. Sure enough, there he was, sheltering under a thick clump of Jerusalem artichokes, soaking wet but contentedly munching. He didn't put up much resistance as we gathered him up into two or three thicek terry bath-towels and carried him in to the bouse. We spent the next hour drying hlm in front of the portable heater, (the outside temperature happened to be in the eighties), but next- morn- ing he was still damp. He had been really saturated but fortunately suffered no ilI effects - not even a sniffle. By the end of the summer our carefully tended lawn had become so pock-marked with Henry's holes that we found ourselves having to pick our way across it was though it were a minefield. We were glad to be able to move him permanently inside when the cool fall weather arrived, fearing that he would contract pneumonia. He was stowed cosily in our basement for the wînter, where he immediately started shedding most of the thick coat of extra fur he had grown in preparation for the Arctic conditions for which Canada is famous. This necessitated daily vacuuming of the area he occupied and our horrified neighbours couldn't help rernarking that tbis was surely the most rotten spoiled rabbit they had ever come across. Henry had quite a temper too, and if anything displeased hlm or he feit neglected in any way, he would thump loudly with bis powerful hind leg until bis needs bad been met., Early this spring, a friend of the family began questioning tbe validity of Henry's sex, saying tbat we couldn't assume be was male'simply because we bad decided be was. Tbe friend put him in bis car and drove off with bim, saying be was taking hlm to a farm whose owner reared rabbits commercially. This, be stated, should provide incontrovertible proof as to the gender of Henry. Haîf an bour later he was back with the rabbit, saying with a smile that in about three weeks' time we could expect a litter of Young bunnies. We didn't really take hlm seriously and treated the matter more or less as a joke. Seventeen days later, rny husband and I drove to Ottawa on business. We were there longer than anticipated and were therefore rather late returning home that same night. We stopped in Peter- borough to have supper and I decided to phone Ernie and let him know that we'd soon be with him. We had hoped to have 'a leisurely meal but our plans were promptly scotched by that telephone caîl. When our son answered, I said, "Ernie, Dad and I are in Pete. . . .", and that was as far aslIgot. "Guess what, Mum 1" I beard. "Wbat?"I replied, in some trepidation. "Henry had babies - 1 think seven of them and I don't know if he's going to eat them or what. You'd better corne home". Lt sounded like a real emergency, 50 we tookoff as Te Canadian Statesman, Bowrnanville, August 22,1979 3 l6 New iDurham Fac ulty%«Members rnere are two acaaemic management promotions'and fast asý the law would allow, only one purpose in mind. Arriving home, we found Ernie standing over the cage, staring anxiously at a squirrning mass of strange- looking littie creatures, al quite naked, but warmly surrounded by a large nest of fur - Henry's - that had certainly not been there when we'd left that morning. There was little that we could do, or that needed to be done, so we just stroked Henry lovingly for a job well done, made sure he-she had something to eat and drink, and retired to bed. Henry and offspring have prospered and have brought great pride and joy to our lives. We have had many offers from people wishing to purchase the adorable littie bunnies, now fully clad in coats of silky fur, but have not even considered parting with any of tbem. 0f course we are fully aware that by next spring, if they are mated, we could have a real, problem on our hands, rabbits being what they are where fecundity is concerned. Our greatest problem was more immediate, however. We realised that we could flot in ail conscience continue to caîl thîs proud mother rabbit by the uncompromisingly masculine name of Henry. Therefore, we decided that the only decent'tbing would be to rechristen our pet "Henrietta" which we did, to the enormous relief of the friend who had been instrumental in proving once and for alI that Heiý..y wasn't Henry after all. So now it's officially "Henrietta"; though, when laziness or nostalgia over- comes us we revert occasionally to the old "Henry", for short. As for Henrietta, she couldn't -care less what' she's called. Her only interest is in having what seems like a ton of food delivered twice daily to her cage, to be devoured by her and ber brood. There they sit, now in a most luxurious cage fashioned from two large apple bins, happily rnuncbing the hours away, without a care in the world.
