Bro. Pennibacker7
Witness-Certainly.
The Court-The scribe will make a
mint Nv this Go on.
Witness-They cum in together, ez |
sed, arm in arm, walked up to the bar
and drank together
BY the Court-Did they drink TO-
getherl
Witness-They ondeniably did.
| BY .Myself-The Court desires to
know what partikeler fooid they abb
sorbed.
Witness-Can't say-spo8e twas
Bascoms new whisky-that's all he's
got ez the Court very well knows.
| BY Myself-The Sexton will 90 at
once to Bascom's and procoor the iden-
tical bottle from which this wretched
man, who stands charged with thus low
erin hisself drunk, and bring it hither.
The Court desires to know, for herself
whether it wuz really whisky. The
pint is an important one for the Court
to know.
A wicked boy remarked that the pint
wood be better understood by the Court
if it wuz a quart. The bottle wuz,
however, brought, and the Court, witch
is me, wuz satisfied. that it wuz really
and trooIy whisky. Ez the refreshin
tiooid irrigated my parched throat, l
wished that trials based upon that bottle
Good be perpetooal.
| considered the case proved, and
asked Bro. Pogram what palliation he
he'd to offer. | set before him the enor-
nifty NV the crime, and showed him that
he wuz by this course sappin the very
toundashun NV the Church and the
Democratic party. Watts the use,
askt, Nv my preachin agin niger equal
ity, so long ez my Deekins practis it,
| told him that Ham wuz Gust by Noer,
and WIZ condemned to be a servant un-
10 his brethren-that he wuz an inferior
race, that the Dimocrisy wuz built up
on that idea, and that associatin with
him in any shape that indicated equality,
wuz either putin them up to our stan
dard or lowrin ourselves to theirn; in
either case the result wuz fatal. i'm
plored Bro. Pogram to make clean
breast nv it; confess his sin and humbly
receive sich punishment ez should be
awarded him, and go and sin no more.
"Speak up Bro. Pogram," sez l pater-
nally and yet severely.
Bro. Pogram, to my unspeakable re-
lief, for be is the wealthiest member of
the congregashun, and one we darsn't
expel, replied:
"That he DID drink with the nicger,
and wat wuz more, he wuz justified
in doin it, for THE NIGER PAID FOR THE
WHISKY! !"
"But shoorly," I remarked, 'it wasn't
nessary to yoor purpose to come in with
the nigger arm in arm, attitood wich
implies familiarity ef not afeckshun."
The Prisoner-The nigger and l he'd
bin pitchin coppers for drinks, and |,
possessin more akootnis, he'd won. /
took the niggcr by the arm, fearin that
eff / let 90 NV him he'd dodge without
payin. They are slippery.
Oyerioyed, ! clasped him around the
neck, and to wunst dismist the chargeas
unfounded and frivolous.
"My BRETHREN" sez "the action Of
Bro. Pogram is not only iuitifable, but
is commendable and worthy of imita-
shun. Ham wuz Gust by Noer, and
condemned by him to serve his brethren.
The niggcr is the descendant Of Ham
and we are the descendant NV the breth-
ren, and eff Noer he'd a clear rite to cuss
one NV his sons and sell en- out to the
balance nv the boys for all time, we hev
ded wood on the nigger, for it is clear
that he WIZ made to laber for us and
minister to our wants. So it WIZ, my
brethren, until an Ape who he'd power
interfcred and delivered him out NV our
hand. Wat shell we do? Wat we can
not do by force we must do by finan-
ceeriu. We can't any longel compel the
nigger to furnish us the means, and
therefore in order to fulfill the skripter,
we are justified in accomplishing by our
sooperior skill wat we used to do with
whips and dorgs.
The spectacle Nv Bro. Pogram's march
in into Bascom's with that nigger, wuz
sublime spectacle and one well cal
cuated to cheer the heart Nv the troo
Dimokrat. He vanquished him in an
encounter where skill wuz required,
thus demonstratin' the sooperiority NV
the Anglo.Saxon mind-he led him a
captive and made NV him spoil
