note, to the distributing office of the
fuel administration at 1903 F street.
His son showed the note there, he saws.
but was unable to get coal.
Tuesday evening he borrowed a
wheeibarrow and trundled 1t over a
good part of Georgetown in search Of
coal. In front OF the Office of one
dealer there was coal dumped on the
sidewalk. He asked ii he could Inv
some. IL only a bushei, and explained
that he had sickness in the family The
dealer. he says. expressed regret, but
declared he could not let him have
any without an order.
That same evening, according to Mr..
Blackman. the dealer who had refused
to sell him bushel OF coal to meet
a dire emergency. delivered a load of
coal to store at S6th and p streets.
Continuing. Mr.. Biackman says:
AT the store the coal was put IN in
paper sacks that hold much less than
a peck and sold for 20 cents a sack"
