ALLEN is PEEVED WHEN SINGING

brighten up the corner where you
are"
Thus sang the colored congregation
at Amandaville. r. H. Aliens wife
had died and a number of the colored
folks of Amandaville and Charleston
went I'D to the Allen home to sit up"
with the body.
Everything was lovely for the
watchers until they started getting
drowsy. Then someone suggested the
watchers sing few hymns to liven
things up a bit.
Tell Me of the Uncloudy Day." sang
the congregation and so did Allen, and
after the day" had been sung, thunder
storms approached. In the midst OF
that hymn, someone touched" Allen
for $160, and Allen was peeved, decid-
eddy so.
John Washington, a dusky friend,
helped Allen look for the money,
but that pocketbook which had been
in his hip pocket was elusive. The
pocketbook's owner then became mo-
rose and Washington went to the hill
side and dug the grave for the late
lamented Mrs. Allen. The husband
was heartbrOken.
The next day Washington was
spending large sums of the filthy
stuff Officers say he gave a party for
all of the negro women in the
vicinity, came to town, purchased
bicycle and further blew himself to
three pair of pants.
Special officer Lanham visited Am
andaville for the express purpose of
recovering that $3.50. AS Washington
went breezing by under full sail, he
was anchored by the officer. Towing
Washington to the St. Adams bastile
he started the third degree. Maybe it
was the fourth, but anyhow Washing
ton came across with $4,000, Lanham
says, which was the remainder of the
roll.
In other words, both Allen and
Washington can now sing, Tell Me
of the Uncloudy Day" with honest-to-
goodness feeling and sentiment.
