I sat down at the farthest table and ordered a Dr. Funk. I did not look at them, for I felt de trop; but suddenly I heard them humming the air of "John Brown's Body," and singing fugitive words. "Grory, grory, harreruah!" came to my ears, and later, "Wayd' 'un S'ut' in le land de cottin." They were making fun of me I thought, and turned my head away.
