When the audience recognize these familiar mementoes of Pudd'nhead's old-time childish "puttering" and folly, the tense and funeral interest vanished out of their faces, and the house burst into volleys of relieving and refreshing laughter, and Tom chirked and joined in the fun himself; but Wilson was apparently not disturbed.
