  1. Travelling Folk

    Share Share Post
    George Gallagher calls at our house. He is travelling ever since he was a boy. He is very poor. He does not sell small articles. He is always welcome. He never sleeps in our house. The alms he gets are money, bread, eggs, meal, milk, sugar, or tea. He travels on foot and he travels alone.
