Johnnie, who knows nothing of his origin, is maid of all work in the Barber flat Another member of the family is Barber's aged father, a veteran of the Civil War, who lives in a wheel chair and enjoys Johnnie's make-believe journeys to make-believe places, luxuriating in make-believe feasts served by a make-believe butler named mister Buckle, Cis, a girl older than Johnnie, is the boy's sister, so far as he knows, and he loves:her like one.
