THE AR005TO0KAN U A v W E y W - E K 'P o o 0 o in fx N, ,H I IZ L , E . .Y - vga, E git REVENGE in plentyatime, 'cus I knows from In the town of Jamesville about seven and one half miles northeast of the city which was known as Cherry- field, there lived a boy who proudly boasted of having a reputation for be- ing tough and absolutely fearless. He was one of those so-called hard guys . As a result of his unbearable swell-headedness and bullying, he was very much disliked by most of the boys in the village. Jerry Brown, picked on the most by this strapping bully, decided one afternoon that he had stood a little too much. Conse- quently he called the gang together over at the clubhouse in order to hatch up a scheme of revenge. Two days later, at about 8 p. m., two boys about fourteen years of age were sneaking along in the shadows of some trees a short distance from the road going toward Cherryfield. The boys, by their efforts to make them- selves less conspicuous, attracted the attention of Farmer John Doe, who lived just across the road. He, being the sole witness of this little adven- ture, will continue the story in detail: Wal, I seen two young scamps a-kemm' up the road and so I sez to to myself, sez I, 'By their actions and seein' as how they'rs out this here way kinda late like, I'll just give 'em a scare'. And so I gits me hat and a lantern and heads for the old AndreW's place, as wot's been deserted thirteen years come next harvestin' times. Wal, as I cuts acrost the fields and through the woods, I easily out-dis- tances the boys and gits to tha house their actions they'd be a-headin' fer tha old Andrew's place. Tha old place is awful rickity and moss-grown and looks as though it ain't had a coat of paint since it war built and. Lord knows, that shore war some time ago. Pretty soon tha boys come ups to tha old house sneakin' 'round actin' kinda scared-like theirselves. They talk loud to one another while they're a-shiverin' inside. I knows, 'cus I was in their shoes oncet, before I come to like tha old place. Wal, they finally sitiates themselves in the kitchen and seems to be waitin' for sunthin'. I parks meself near to 'em. after listenin' quite a spell and gettin' quite some speal o' their plan. I tiptoes careful-like up to the top floor and waits until the rest of the gang comes with the visitors. As soon as I sights 'em -- they had brung a couple of lanterns with 'em -- I goes inta tha attic and gits a lantern with tha chim- leys painted blue. They was used for some sorta time I guess, Xmas probly. When I hears the boys come in and head fer tha kitchen, I goes up stairs and hides in the closet. Jack Mahaney, tha town bully, and couple a pals of his'n war in tha bunch. This war tha idea: some a tha boys in the gang war to tell Jack that they'd found some old apple-jack in tha Andrew's place and so gits him to come out. Then, oncet they war all thar in tha cellar, tha gang would sudden-like up'n run. Tha two early birds war to see thet tha door war ready to be locked and thet tha boys' lamp war put out, which war done and done well -- with a sling
