The Testimony
And another from Brian Behr Valentine. Double point to him for using exactly 55 words in each of his stories!
“So, he’d been taken away twice before?”
“He ate ants, I tell you! He wouldn’t never do right!”
“Twice?”
“Yes, taken twiced, but I weren’t drunk this time! He ate ants and I was afraid fur him!”
“Please tell the jury what you did about the ants.”
“I dosed him good with ant poison, see!”

I would use “fer” instead of “fur” in line three dialect. As fer has no meaning, you avoid confusion using it rather than the word “fur” which does.
