long to stay
Deacon walked on thinkin this over
until he met Sim Perkins. Good gra-
chious," says Sim, whats wrong with
you this mornin, Deacon? ;" why ?"
says the Deacon gittin kind of pale
around the gil1s. why becuz," says
Sim, you look like a sick man to me
you look to me Deacon as if you was
a going into a decline" The Deacon
walked on without saying ennythink.
After that he met Plutarch Stone and
Anne Hillyer and Jake Winslow and
Bill Hepburn who was all in the skeem
and who all told the Deacon that he
1ool1d turrible bad and must be awful
sick. By the time the Deacon got as
far down street as Hen Weathersbys
store he was sick sure enuff and there
wassent no doubt about it either-he
was as sick as a dog and as pale as a
ghost. He was so sick he couldn't walk
and set rite down on the sidewalk in
front of Hens store and had to be car
r1ed into the store and all becuz he had
been told so much how sick he looked
by so menny folks that he was ACTUALLY
sick
Well, to make a long story short the
Deacon had to be carried home on a
stretcher and put to bed Doc Liver
more who also knowd about the joke
the boys was playin on him called to
VISIT the Deacon and Doc seen that the
Deacon was in a bad way so he told
him jest what the fellers had put up on
him.
Soon as the Deacon was told that he
jumped right Cuten bed Madden a wet
hen and went down street and shuk his
cane under the nose of everybuddy who
told him he was sick and jerked off his
coat and dared EN- to fight saying he'd
show EN- whether he was sick or not.
The fellers jest LATED at the Deacon
they wouldn't fight him being as he is
old man and they respeckt his gray
hairs even if they don't respeckt his
complaints
Well, the upshot of the whole entire
matter is sinst that day the Deacon aint
sed one single word about not feeling
well. Whenever ennybuddy asks him
how he feels he'll say, Fit as a fiddlel"
and there amt word of complaint
come outen his mouth. AS a result it
is believed the Deacon is cured of COM
plainin and in our opinion the fellers
who put up the joke on him done him
great blessing also theirselfs becauz
they probably wont haft to Hssen to his |
complaints no more.
