where the cotton pen used to stand.
He had heard the Freedom Gabriel
blow his trumpet, and he bad dropped
tears and evergreens into his master .

on the hillside Of sponsibility. But
he has done preaching His hair is as
white as the cotton DE used to pick,
and the babies he used to fondle now
fondle babies of their own. The old
mans downfall was simple but decisive.
