or something and couldn't fgger what it was
doing coming from that direction as the river
was way down behind the house and there
warnt nothing in front but a road and not
much of a road at that. only some weeds with
rutS on either side, and he had sense enough
to know that no boat would be coming down.
that way: SO he was right puzzled about it
all right.
The Racket Begins
ANYHOW. the sound kept getting louder
and the other dogs started whining and look
E inc around at me, and the chickens begun
trotting this way and that like they do when
a storm is coming up, and stood up on the
lookout for it. Then it sounded like it was
almost roaring, and about that time it heaved
into sight around the edge of the woods
And you should have heered the racket set
up then. The dogs got to barking and howl
ing and the chickens started SquaWking run
ming this way and that, and then the car
come busting up in front of the place with
dust behind it in long pillows turning and
heading right toward the house like it was
aimed for it. Blue took off for the woods with
most of the hounds running ducktailed behind
him, barking and looking back over their
/. shoulders; the chickens went around in circles
. trying to dodge it, which was probably as
good way as any with the car webbing the
way it was; they darted here and there, only
most of them never made any Roadway at
all and got knocked aside and went fiuttering
off, all but one that went straight up in the
air and came down on the hood and set there
right calm for a second, thinking she had got
out Of the way of it. but then turning and
seeing the house heading for her, and setting
up about twice as much Of a ruckus about
that.
So it was pretty much Of surprise to
me too because for a minute there it looked
like the car warnt going to stop at all. mean
it come heading right for us and didn't begin
to stop until it was about thirty feet from
the porch: and then 1t jolted with dust blow
ing up past it. and stopped, and jumped for
ward again and finally come to halt and
then the door slammed and this little. fat.
roundfaced fellow come walking through the
cloud of dust talking just as hard as he could.
I mean that's just the way he done too. All
you could hear was the door slam and see
him coming through the dust with his mouth
going. You couldn't hear what he was saying.
though-all you could hear was sounds and
see his mouth moving because there was so
much racket all around. and it really was
surprising I mean it looked like he was
ravlng somehow-he was either doing that
or preaching and 1t didn't seem natural to
me that fellow would come riding up in a
car that way and jump out and start preach
ing even though I did know one fellow who
used to jump at you from behind the bushes
and start preaching-but it didn't seem that
way somehow; and with all the racket going
on. you couldn't tell what he was doing.

Pa Won't FeeIin Just Too Good
When This Teller Come A-BeIIerin'

ANYHOW, Pa usually warnt In so good
humor when he woke up easy and casual
I mean it usually took him half hour or
so to manage it and he warnt in much OF
humor then: and waking up with dogs bark
ing and chickens bowling and man stomp
ing up and talking that way was pretty much
of shock to him any way you look at it.
I seen his eyes blinking and his jaws moving
before he was halfway up; then he stood
there a second. shaking his head trying to
get his bearings and looking down at the
fellow like he hadn't ever seen anything like
him in his life before. And all this time the
man kept on talking-I caught the words
e.. want to see Will Stockdale; now is that
you or amt it because I've been riding for
:" but that was all could make out-but
he kept on with it. and then he raised one
finger up and started wiggling it at me. say
ing something else, but about that time Pa
lit into him with about the only thing he could
think of at the time, ! guess. being half
asleep the way he was; he yelled out. Don't
you pint your finger in my boys facel
So that kind Of stopped the fellow for q
second; he turned and looked at Pa and Pas
face turned a little redder and then he
beloved it out again, Don't you pint your
finger in my boys facet" which should have
quoted him down for a while. only it didn't.
because the next thing knowed. there he
was telling Pa he just ought to keep out OF
the whole thing. that he was there to see
me and not him, and that it warnt Pas
business
Not my business" Pa said Just what in
the hell do you mean by that. sir?"
Look" the fellow said. Il came out here
to see this boy and I . :"
Just what do you mean, not my busi-
ness" Pa said to him; and for a minute he
was leaned so far over him. it looked like he
might just fall right on top Of him.
But then the fellow came back with
something else. and Pa kept coming back at
him. The fellow was trying to tell what he
wanted to see me about and got right
curious, only he never got to finish because
all Pa could talk about was him going around
pointing his finger in my face. and it warnt
much Of an argument with both of them talk
ing about different things that way and all,
But finally Pa out-yelled hims and got
him onto his argument, but then the fellow
said that it was his finger and my face and 1t
was his business where he pointed 1t. and Pa
come back with, Not on my property, it
aint," and then the fellow got of the point
again and said If he had property like ourn.
he sho wouldn't go around Dragging about 1t,
and then Pa come back by saying. Il don't
care about that but one thing I amt going
to stand for as long as am a man is having
somebody going around printing their fingers
in peoples faces on my property" which was
a pretty long thing to say in one below and
left him so wore out he was kind Of gasping
before he finished.
