I don't believe that's our ring. I know, because I'll believe you're right. Oh, see. Hello, John, I'm down, Storm. This is love and abner. Let's see what's going on down in Pine Ridge. Well, Lum finally persuaded Malsey to quit his night watchman's club so that he could devote all of his time to training for his fight tomorrow with our night.
But to do it, Lum had to sign a paper giving Abner full ownership of the store and bakery. Lum considers the paper worthless, but Abner has decided to hold him to it for a few days and teach Lum a lesson.
As we look in on the little community today, we find Abner in the Jamfam Down store and Grandpappy Spears has just entered. Well, morning, Grandpam. Good morning, Abner. Morning. How are you today? Oh, just only terribly.
only tolerably for about this long. Have you taken him back in the story yet? Oh, why course I mean, facts is he don't even know he's out of it yet. You know, all he still thinks that paper he read out, giving me the Stewart Baker, he's just a joke.
Well, and she told him you're gonna hold him to it? Well, I ain't had a chance. He spends all his time training that's mouth so he'll be able to fight with her and I at the carnival.
And you ain't teaching on much of a lesson if he don't know if he's actually lost his half of the business here. Well, don't worry. He's going to find out about it. And believe me, I'm going to make old law.
I appreciate this to work while letting him back in. Yes, that's your time, Adner. I'm telling you, Grandpa, if I just got myself for a long, sick and disgusted with all these big audits that long gets yourself mixed up in.
