So ther house rot thar goin 70 rack.
Well, last year when times was 50
hard Mr.. Hackney said he' d like to sell
Is We he'd an idee he would too. But
who was goin to buy itl Al ther sum
mer went b "a times got harder Nh
Hackney would come down IN his figers
He did this reg lar every month, siinyat
nobody would boy In September mo al
Debora got mighty blue. We: hedn't
been maxim nothin an was still dom Their
same
We looked down in tibet old SOCK an
found just fifteen dollars an quartef.
Thet would pay ther rent three months
longer, providin we didn't eat nutnin
durin tibet time. If we did, then we
could only count on livin in Their house
two ponths longer, then bein dumped
ont II Their mud. We didn't know what
to do spent my time walkin ther front
gallery, tryin to scratch some sort D.
idee out o. my head, an Debora took
ther back gallery to herself About tibet
time we kivered more ground wallin
them galleries then we he'd any idee Of.
But to save my head couldn't get an
idee in it. Debora beat me there. One
evenin she flop through ther house an
say:
joe I got an idee.
= Out with it, says ]. /.
Hero tits, says she. Mr.. Hack
ney's figures gone down to $15 for tibet
ha'nted house. Let's buy it an moveIit
up to our lot, live in it an save house
rent, ISL.
= What about ther ha'nts?' says L
8 urn 'em out, says she. Turn ther
ha' nts inside ont Seer
Now, wasn't tibet an idee for you?
We fshed out tibet sock, paid Mr.. Hack
ney for ther ha'nted house, an me an
Debora took it good. You ought to seen
her pullin ont the nails with Their crow
bari Such 9 trump my Debora Is any
howl We borrowed two poles, q fiat and
as6f an towed it up here. In our ali6
was two sets Of oars Debora he'd one
set, me Z other, an I tell you we made
thet fiat move. Then we put it up We
turned all ther boards inside out, like
Debora said, an scattered 'em all round.
So when it was done there wan & no one
wall high as it was at fust. Il was for
sure turned inside out SRI .
One night ther ha 'nts was maxim q
fuss, an ! warn't payin no 'tention TO
'em, but Debora sided up right close an
says right out an in tremblyfed tone
'J-o-o-e, air you asleep
Yes, says I. Don't wake me.
: Do you hear them ha' nts, J-o-o-e?'
es, says ], but they is outside
an pretty scattered. One ghost foot IN
this room, one in ther. other, an thes.
hands an feet's in ther other part O.
Their house an stand all outside. Yoa
amt Arid Of ghost tenants, air you,
Debora? It's your idee. Debora went
to sleep, an she ain t said sha 'nts, to me
since.
Theirs "a small racket round Of
nightsit is so scattered we don t mind
it. .
Fisherman Joe reflled his pipe,
glanced around over his house, and with
a breath long and full of content said:
