TRUST CONCERNS by Granny Annie


Henry was an autodidact steward. He learned his skills from books and from his imagination. This caused many to doubt his mechanical inventions. Most of his completed types of transportation seemed as if they were widdershins. Still Henry kept moving forward on a large, strict scale regardless of being oppugned. His inventions, once sold, were non-fungible. The only lively argument for a total refund came from a nun . She experienced a breakdown of Henry's skipping machine on the trail. This caused Sister Maria to miss an important meeting with her Bishop.
