of the Sabbath in Louisville. Flowers and grass
blooming in the open air, the sun Just peeping

down the broad, placid, and rather sluggish
Ohio, gilds the varied scenery ofeither side the

Tom declares himself free nigger-the ferry
man doubts-Uncle Tom gets on his muscle
and swears he is bound to 60 ashore, but the
determined position taken by the ferryman in
front Of Uncle Tom, sort Of precludes snch
possibility. The scene grows exciting, Uncle
Toms eyes snap with offended dignity, while
the Ferryman very unconcernedly whittles the
rail in front of him with his dirk knife.
"Thc fact is, you needn't expect us TO run
the risk Of a $1,000 fine for your ave cents
carriage"
"Yer's my papers, says Uncle Tom.
