poor old man was trying to make
friends with US, but as soon as we
caught sight of him we ran away .Ev-
erybody regarded Old Bead as an &C.
centric person, little crazy, perhaps,
but harmless. Passing his hut one
day, | saw that it had been torn down.
Old Bead had disappeared, and l
never knew whether he had died or
taken his departure for some other
neighborhood.

DODSON

Some years ago there lived near
here an old man known to everyone as
Old Bead. He lived all alone in an
old tumble-down, implanted house that
was so small that it could have hardly
contained more than one room, and a
very little one at that. It's two win
dows were crammed with old ragssto
take the place of the broken glass.
Its leaky roof was patched with slabs,
and instead of chimney, little piece
of stove-pipe just sticking out of the
top served to carry away the smoke
No one ever saw the inside of the
house. Old Beads occupation was
that of gathering rags, and it was said
that his house was filled with them,
which seemed not unlikely, from the
appearance of things. Whenever Old
Bead appeared at any house, in the
neighborhood, the children ran and
hid. Anyone who mustered UP cour-
age to peek from his hiding place
would see an old ragged man, rather
short and stout, with a red face and
frowsy black beard His voice, which
was harsh and cracked, was the main
cause of our terror. Many inconsid-
crate mothers in the neighborhood
used old Beads name as the means of
frightening their children. If they
threatened to have Old Bead after
them they FASTENED to behave well.
One day while playing with other boys
in lonely spot by the riverside, we
were startled to hear Old Beads
harsh voice say, THAT'S the way ye
dew it, hey?" and looking up we saw
his dirty red face grinning at us and
shining like the face of an ogre. The
