THE STORY OF THE BLACK CROW.

THE STORY OF THE BLACK CROW
There was small, little grocery store
down South in a little village, and they
used profane language, and the crow
learned to say damn you " They had
fues one night and the cage fell down, aud
the old crow flew OUT, and built a nest in
the rafters of the only little church there
was ia that village. Every two weeks the
minister held q prayer meeting there, and
one evening he was delivering his seLnon,
and when he was becoming warm with his
subject the old crow poked out her head
and said, Damn you" Qaughter). The
Old miuisrer wondered. He commenced to
tremble, but he tried to keep his courage
up, and resumed his sermon when again
the bird of darkness said, Damn you"
(laugh'er). His knees bled. The Old
crow H9w down upon the platform Rpoa
the pulpit. BE threw his sermon one way,
his bible the other, and jumped oat of the
window, The audience brgau to rush to
the door, but there happened to be one old
lady who had lame leg in that audience
(laughter) and she fell down. She had a
satchel, and in that was some bread au d
cheese. When she fell the satchel flew
open and the cheese fell upon the floor.
The old crow hoped from the pulpit to
the cheese, and he looked at her. She
opened her eyes and said: "it is the devil"
The old crow says "damn you" (laug ghter)
Aud then she says, ''And damn you, too,
