Well, sir, he took me up, an' I borrered the money of Joe Dennett, who held the stakes, an' we went right over to Bill Pike's with all the boys follerin' on behind.

Don't you believe Aunt Sarah Cobb would keep him? She carries flowers to the graveyard every little while, and once she took me with her. Dennett says this one is seventeen months.
It is a handsome building in the gardens skirting the city. We applied, and on learning we were strangers, they gave us permission to enter.
