happy thought struck him He would
surprise Eliza. SO he bundled new
shit into the wagon, hurried toward
home. and at the bridge, two miles
from town. he stood up in the wagon
and peeled" and threw the despised
old suit into the creek Then he
reached for his new clothes. They
were gone-had jolted out Of the wag-
