said well sir you did a prety smart thing to throw a helpless old man on
to the rong trane and send him of 100 miles away from home and scart all
his peeple most to deth becaus they thougt he was merdered and cost him
3 dolars to telegraf and stay all nite and if you dont know more then
that you had beter soke your head. father he said what was the old fool
trying to get on the trane for if he dident want to go on it, and the
man he said he was trying to get of the trane and you woodent let him
and the man holered so loud that evrybody cood hear him and shook his
fist and went of swaring feerful. then Mr. Pope he said o what a fall
was there my countrymen just like what was in the fourth reader and Mr.
Davis he said immortal seezer ded and tirned to clay, that is in the
fourth reader two. then all the men laffed and said the treat is on you
George and father he laffed two and said he wood be cussed, and he said
that is what a man got by not tending to his own bizness. tonites paper
