Mnemonic
Mister Henderson is the wealthiest sheep rancher in the county. Every dawn he steps onto his porch and whistles—hundreds of woolly sheep come stampeding over the hills toward him, forming one enormous flock that blankets the entire valley under the mister's watchful eye.
Additional thoughts
