DAILY BANNER WATCHMAN, ATHENS, GEORGIA SUNDAY MggJftNG AUGUST* 17. 1S84*
THE BAD BOY.
“Tuor boy,” Mid the gnxwrman to
tlie I Mid boy. a* tie came in toe store
looking tanned an ' tough, ”1 do pity
you. J iimlrnUm) your latber’n stom
ach is all gone, and that be can’t keep
anything on it. The policeman on thia
l>cat. who com-* in here aflerche^ee and
cracker*, anu telle me to keep mj vege
table* off the sidewalk, says he saw your
im leaning over a fence down by the lake
laat iiight, sick a* a otse, and he seen
ed to be saying 'N10 Yolch’ to somebo
dy on the other side of the fence, and
that after he got through talking, and
wiped bis face, he went up the sidewalk
towards home »o weak and tired tnat
the policeman felt sorry for him. 1 guess
your pa did not quit drinking a minute
too quick. When a man arinkghard
for twenty thirty fears, ins stomach
must get tired. But the policeman said
you were walking along behind your pa
Minillng. How waa it*”
“Tbat'a a no such a thing,” said the
bud boy. “I don’t think I smiled at ail,
cause 1 tried not to smile. Pu’s stom
ach is all right, only on such an occa
sion.” ,
“Such an occasion? What do yon
mean? asked tne grocery man• in some
indignation.
‘•Well, I’ll tell you,” said the bad
boy, a* he sat down on a case of blue
• berries. “Yoi see, I have beenouton
the lake a good deal lately and have
teamed to sail a boat splendidly, and
when pa see I coaid sail a boat be
thought it wa* awful queer If he couldn’t
sail a boat too, bat yoa know it is the
hardest thing in the world to tail a boat
unless you know how. Pa aee mi sail
ing around on the bay, and when I came
up to the landing lie—111 he weald get
in and sail. I asked him If hdVnow how
to sail, and by the way be'Miked about
sailing 1 concluded pa was with *CspUin
Kidd, aa be sailed.’ I didnV like the
way pa took hold of the tiller and the
ropes, but I thought it was my duty to
keep I IT mouth shut, so I let pa went!
He run her right tut fa the take, and I
Hit till re expecting when be turned her
about he would nwarap the boat. I
thought we had gone out far enough,
any way it waa farther thao I ever went,
and the «ea was becoming rough. I ask
ed na if he hadn’t better turn ner round,
mid lie said he supposed the wind would
change and sail us bick. Healthy old
sailor, wasn't he? Well, 1 told him to
port Ilia helm, or at least that I would if
I was him, and jibe Che main sheet, bnt
pa looked ns though he didn’t know a
helm from a string of suckers. Finally,
he rnn her right around broadside to the
wind, and never let np on the still, and
she went almost over, Mid Ailed half full
of water, when pad rop)»ed the tiller and
sail and beg*n to climb up the side and
yell that we were lost. Says be, 'Hen
nery, If yon know anything about this
boat, grab something and get ua out of
this.’ 1 knew she would float as long as
the sail was flapping, so I pulled my
lags out of the water, and sat upon my
feet on the seat, and lit a cigarette and
told pa he better sail her home, cunae he
knew more about it than a little boy.
You aee, lie bad played hia superior in
telligence on me, and deceived his trust
ing, guileless, innocent child, anil I felt
as though, if he war ted mo to take his
place that he should ask me in a manner
that would show he had confidence in
my skill. I wanted him to admit that
he was no sailor. The boat was in the
trough of the f e-i, and it roll -d. and pa
begun to get sick. He turned while,
ana wanted me to atop smoking; He
said those cigarettes made nim sick, so
I threw the cigarette a* ay on one aide,
and t>a, not to Ite outdone in politeness,
P Ssed his supper on the other Hide. I
sat there enjoying the sail, when pa said.
•Hennery, your pa lias got the cholera,
and il is your duty 10 get him home and
go after a doctor.’ You’d a iU^c to see
pa. He said the cholera run in o.v fam
ily, and the only cure for It was to get
your feet braced on land, and then he
dropped down in the water, all exoe|*
his head, which he kept out over the
oilier side, for reasons that are plain to
any man that was ever sea sick. If pa
hadn’t told uie there waa no trick in
sailloy u boat, anil that anybody could
do it that could hang on, and that I
thought f waa smart because 1 had not
tipfied over before, 1 would have taken
hold and sailed her back sooner than I
did. Finally pa began to talk of the
hereafter, and that by to-morrow the
white fish in the lake would be nibbling
at our bodies, and that it was hard to dir
of chi lera so far away from home, where
nobody else couhl catch it, so I told him
if he wonld promise to be a different roan
I would save hia life. 'O, bless you, me
clteild,’ said pa, as he leaned over the
rail and had a fit, ‘Just mo this blasted
old tub ashore, and let me once more
breathe the.tree air of heaven, without
throwing up my • boots, and I can die
happy, after I got a chance ' to kick the
stuffing out of the mao that lent yoo!
this boat.’ Well, pa war sick, ana nai
mistake, and I felt sorry for hiru, bat ,tie*
was to b.ame. 801 told him if he would
appoint me the master of
I iceman saw him. How a man does
change when he gets out of danger, don’t
he?” and the bad boy went oat hitching
vp his pants like a sailor in Pinafore.

bail the boat out with bis plug-hat, and
obey every order, or we were gone. Pa
f ot down and began to fling Water with
in hat, and pray, and heave Jonah, and
swear. I thought I should die laughing,
becaule he waa the acardest man I ever
saw, except one man wboee wife aaa

her up on to wave sideways, and let her
roll, and then I would yeti taps to jamp

hold of the bar*. Well; p* didn’t jump
like a tiger. You have ateui monkeys
clamber around oe the ban of a cage.
Pa didn’t act that way. When the boat
wonld go over and take in a bar.-el or
two ot water that, pa had fast thrown
out in hi* hat, and I yelled, he would
walk tight up the iaside of the boat like,
