Hello, Doctor Jones? This is Missus Rastus Johnson, thas' right, used to be Lily Jackson.-Rastus' powerful sick, doctor.-No, it can't be somethin' he et. Why no, doctor, just a couple hamburgers and a half a chicken and some roast beef and five- six pieces of cake and pie and three dishes of ice cream. Naw zir, can't be nothing he drunk, neither: jus' a couple 'o quarts of that beer and a fifth of gin an' a big jar of lemonade and two-three cokesg that's every bit he drunk. Where '? Oh, yes, down at that amusement park. Rastus' head hurts too, yeah, his head, where he fall out of the roller-coaster and hit the door. The water fixed that though, yes, the water, when he fell out of chute de chute into the pond. Sa- funniest thing I ever saw, stayed down five minutes before they could haul him out. They rolled him on a barr'l to get the water out but that made him bleed again. Yeah, bleed, bleed blood, where that rascal, Tom Jackson, cut him with his razor. Cut him here an' here and way up here before Rastus could get his revolver out. You better come on down to the police station. Said he was toting conseeled weapings.
