Nobody wanted the jackass, and the
boy, mounting. rode to the next corner,
where about the same performance was
repeated. All day long he rode up and
down the street; extoliing the gentle
qualities of the jackass and picking HIM
self up from the mud every time he was
pitched of. He stood up to the racket
with as much fortitude rs Casabianca

he finally got a bid of three dollars for
the jackass. This seemed TO entirely

thrown from the jackass for the last

animal in the street, As he remarked:
