my breakfast egg for the last six
mornings and would sell them to
Mr.. Joe Schluter for a dime so
as to be able to buy mama tatting
thread to finish baby set she
was making for cousin OF hers
in Alabama who was expecting +.
About mid afternoon we went
up the road to wait for daddy and
the ride he let us have on the
running board of the car when
we didn't 60 along. We waited and
watched while visions of the bag
of fruit daddy always brought
made our mouths water . an
orange each, a huge horse apple
to be divided evenly and all the
bananas we wanted because they
were real ripe and a good buy at
eight cents per dozen.
When we heard the car chug-
ging through the sand bed above
the Roland road we held hands
and got in the middle of the road;
when dadday saw us he footed the
horn for us to get out of the way,
and right by us he chugged =. &.
we got a good view of him and
Uncle Jack who went along for
his first ride in the new Model t,
and better view of a big pack
ing case on the back seat :. SO tall
it pushed the cloth top up in an
interesting hump.
By the time we painted and
pounded down the muddy road,
daddy and Uncle Jack had the car
unloaded and the box nowhere in
sight. At our drilling questions,
daddy protested that he knew
nothing about box of any kind
and limited that we saw things
and that he thought our mama
should give us a good dose of cas-
tor oil and put us to bed, and if
she didn't and we kept Fostering
him he would dish out to us a
heavy portion.
It was too late to look for the
box that night, but the morning
saw us looking in all the likely
places; it took us the better part
of three days to cover the house,
what with jobs to do for mama
and keeping out of her way while
we looked.
We were ready to admit defeat
when our eyes fell on the cotton
seed piled in huge mountain at
one end of the cement floored corn
crib that was so big, that no mat
ter how good the crop it was never
filled.

About the middle of December,
daddy went on an all-day trip TO
Summit, Miss. AS a rule he let
brother and me go along and we
looked at the trains, pressed our
noses flat against the glass store
fronts and dreamed of Christmas
and the lovelies we saw in the
windows /. we ate great bowls
of oyster stew and lots of crack
ers at noon and often we had five
cents of our own to spend for soda
pop, that we made last for an hour
or more while we turned around
and around on stools that went
around but never higher or lower.

Nothing daunted us; for we were
young and well fed, with time on
our hands; shovels were nearby
and believe it or not we moved
every seed (seed out of sixty three
bales of cotton) looking for that
box after they were moved we
had to shovel them back in place,
at strict orders from daddy.
Somehow in the excitement of

a ten pound stick of peppermint
candy, kumquats from California
and lemons right off a tree in her
front yard we forgot the box.
Years later l remembered the
box, asked my brother if he ever

where it was hidden =. he hadn't
thought of it in years.
