We learn there has been woman
in the form of an angel visited Bob
Coker while he was at work in the
field. We don't know what became of
Bob. We have not learned whether
he was able to run or not. That re-
minds US of the five old negroes who
were hoeing in the field at the time,
whenea balloon fell close to them; they
all ran except one who was not able to
run. He mustered up courage enough
to walk up to the balloon and when the
man walled out the old negro says,
''How do you do, Mars Jesus; how did
you leave your pa?" The old negro
had heard of the second coming of
Christ and thought He had arrived.
That again reminds US of little some
thing that happened long while ago
There was an old negro living near
Uncle Buck Lloyd that was a great
hand to raise watermelons. One year
he had lot of very fine melons and
they commenced to disappear, and he
said to his old lady, Hannah, some
thing gwine wild my watermelons and
can't see nobody's track but mine. /"
The weather was very warm and when
the old negro would come in from his
work at night he would leave his shoes
on the edge of the gallery, and after
he would go to sleep our good friend,
Little Tommy Floyd, would slip there
and get the old negros shoes and go
and get a load of watermelons and
then go and place the old negro's shoes
back where he got them Now don't
any of you tell Little Tommy that |
told you about this, nevertheless it is
true. But if you don't tell him hard
ly think he will find out that you have
heard it, as | don't think he takes The
Advertiser and there is no postoffice
where he lives. People have two
eyes and one tongue so they could be
able to see just as much again as they
talk about. Never tell all you know.
Kind wishes to all. TOBE.
