Uncle Lorne his inside a feather bed when the British came to search his home. They never noticed that the bed his wife was mending had left feathers all over the floor..... or that the bed was still full.

Aunt Jenifer sat in her kitchen. Half in her lap and half on the floor was an enormous feather bed. She was peacefully sticking on it a new ticking. The only unusual thing was the great number of feathers this deft housewife had carelessly spilled over her kitchen floor.
