Remember there are aged parents; two brothers living one railroading in Spokane Falls, the other clerking in Washington, D.C. Don't mention the Universalists there's be'n two in the fam'ly; nor insanity there's be'n one o' them. The girl in the corner is the one that the remains has be'n keeping comp'ny with. If you can make some genteel allusions to her, it'll be much appreciated by his folks."
It must have gotten into my mind, somehow, that you had married and gone back to chopping cotton. Still driving for Uncle Jess Ellison, I reckon?" "Yes, still clerking for the same drover," admitted Straw, glancing at the wounded limb. "What's this I hear about you laying off, and trying to eat some poor nester out of house and home? You must be getting doty." "Enjoy yourself, Nat.
The rain, however, continued at a steady downpour, and seemed good for the night. "We may have to be campaigning in this kind of weather in another fortnight," remarked Hal.

"Well, there's a chance at night clerking in a little hotel where I was a bell-hop long time ago. The night clerk's going to get through, but I don't know just when prob'ly in a week or two."

"Hope Hamilton's there." Brissenden paused and rested his hands. "Strawn- Hamilton's his name hyphenated, you know comes of old Southern stock. He's a tramp laziest man I ever knew, though he's clerking, or trying to, in a socialist cooperative store for six dollars a week. But he's a confirmed hobo. Tramped into town.
