AFRAID OF HATTIE

VIII dug because Hattie was
mad and he was afraid of her He
bent his back TO the job. 1t was
a hard one. The rock was like
iron.
But following the twentieth
blow he began TO pick with more
earnestnesS than he had ever
known.
Hattie watched him in silence.
Her mouth was open. The rock,
freed of the dirt of centuries,
showed yellow and shiny. 1t was
pure gold.
The assayer paid Will Hannaby
$4,000 for that nugget and Will
and Hattie moved back TO town.
You can find Will there today on
his porch or at the Glen or at
Caverly's saloon, where he spends
a lot of his time talking.
He doesn't like Franklin d.
Roosevelt. Roosevelt, he points
out. pampers the laboring classes,
boosting wages and encouraging
strikes. That's no way to handle
working people. Will says. You
got 10 make them work hard for
every penny you give them. N

He could lie there and read and
sleep. He wasn't feeling half as
bad as he might when he con-
fronted Hattie with the bad news.
Hattie was built like an electric
bulb with legs. Cooking for Will
for u years had given her an
enormous appetite.
She was a good natured, red
faced woman with. once in a

She was miners daughter and
she had been brought up in Carson
