Celebration of Independence Day with great pomp and show was quite appropriate when we were fighting for independence which we had neither seen nor handled.

Sometimes I lifted a chicken that warn't roosting comfortable, and took him along. Pap always said, take a chicken when you get achance, because if you don't want him yourself you can easy find somebody that does, and a good deed ain't ever forgot.
