Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1897-07-21
ToBE CONTINUED.

H@ Old Sam Kalleton was doubtless
one of the most ardent Legislators
known to the history of Arkansaw.
Every bill introduced by well-dressed
man he looked upon with suspicion,
and never failed to suggest an amend
ment. One morning, after nights
carousal, he entered the legislative
hall just as the chaplain was asking
divine aid. The old man took chew
of tobacco and listened attentively un'
til the chaplain closed his petition with
an effective recitation of the Lords
prayer.
"Mr. Speaker" said the old man,
arising, ~ move to strike out the words
daily bread and insert las much bread
as may by found necessary for &c
days We have already done enough
for the flood sufferers"

AN INDEPENDENT LAWYER. - A
lawyer, with his client, called one day
at the office of gentleman who is
considered to be one of the leading
men of the Philadelphia bar. The
lawyer had an important case, and he
wanted to take the legal big gun in as
adviser. He explained his business
and said he and the client would be
back in the afternoon. II won't be
here then," said the legal giant. II
have an engagement at o'clock, and
