Mathilda Mongoose decided that it was time for her sons to go out
into the world and make their own fortunes. After all, Mathilda was
now a widow. Her husband, Maurice Mongoose, had only recently met
with a most unfortunate accident. It had seemed so easy to get the
young chickens from inside the cage. What Maurice did not know is
that it was a trap set to catch him. Poor Maurice That had been the
end of him. Now, Mathilda was having a difficult time finding
enough food for herself and her three children. With the high price
of food, the human people were not leaving many scraps so the rat
colony had moved away in search of better hunting grounds. Since
rats are the main food of mongooses, Mathilda knew that she too,
would have to find a new home where there might be more food.
Mathilda Mongoose called a family council of her two sons and one
daughter. When everyone was settled, Mathilda Mongoose told her
children that hard times were upon them because there was not
enough food in the neighborhood. "My sons, the two of you must now
go out into the world and find new hunting grounds for yourselves.
Magnolia will remain with me until she can find a suitable husband
who can provide for her."
