  1. (continued from previous page)
    this boy was.
    They put on their coats again and walked away and he followed them until they came to a house. They went in and there were tables laid before them, with all kinds of waitresses. They all took their chairs and said down, exept this boy he had none. He asked his partner to give, half the chair to sit on, and he said yes. But he had no fork, he asked his partner for the fork and he said yes.
    When they all got through eating, they got ready to go to bed. Each man had a sing bed, but he had none, he asked his partner would he give him part of his bed to sleep, he said yes. He went to bed and when he woke in the morning he was still at the gate
