Everybody knows that they workin pairs,
and when they meet q greeny, one braces
him, gets his name and the town from
which he halls, apologies for installing
him for Mr., Smith or Jones, OF Cohoes or
Konaka, and goes back and posts his pal,
who usually waits around the corner for
him. The pal then tackles the hayseeder,
after consulting his guide book, getting the
population, bank presidents names, and
the names Of a few leading merchants Of
the town the '~haysseder' came from, 1t

first man to strike the stranger throws his
left hand behind his back, and with the

way the second man is able to brace the
stranger before the first man has done
