the tramp. His unkempt head alone
was visible. 1t wagged and leered.

and in silence accepted the invitation.
He lurched down the aisle, between
the rows Of clean and quiet people,
and took a seat in the amen corner,
beside the big, red hot, cast iron
stove.
There he sat, picture Of wretch

outraged the preacher.

number. Even now the dollar is
