lie laid it tenderly down across the
front seats and sat beside it, facing the
other people in the'car. An old gentle
man sitting one seat back, who had
been watching the performance with
much interest, suddenly leaned for
ward.
THAT wreath from Blank'sR" he
questioned.
"Umph."
Thought so. Funeral?"
"Umph."
"Ye're mighty proud of II, amt
YEP"
The colored man looked a trifle sur
prised, but admitted that he was.
Which admission seemed to rouse tire
old gentleman to wrath.

he announced TO the other passengers;
tits goin' up to John Dash's, and he
ought TO be ashamed of himself too,
gettin' flowers from a downtown for
list. We've got plenty of good florists
out n East Cleveland. He amt any
more respectable dead n he was alive,
John Dash amt and won't even ride TO
the car with his funeral wreath"
With which remark the protector of
East end merchants actually climbed
laboriously out of the car, leaving the
other passengers in n high state of
glee, and the colored boy so astonished
he couldn't get his mouth properly shut
for four whole blocks.
