He's in a blue vessel ring. Hi, Dogy's Lumb. I'll believe you're right. Oh, see. Hello, Johnum Downstour. This is Lumben Abner. Let's see what's going on down in Pine Ridge.
Dowd, Janie Smith, left town rather suddenly yesterday when he learned that Lumb had talked to a detective on his pamphlet delivering Journey to Hot Springs. Before leaving, he placed Lumb in full authority of all his activities in Pine Ridge Regent said that he would probably be back in about a week.
As we're looking on the little community today, we find Abner in the Dautam Downstorm Library, Lumb is just entering. Listen. Well, morning, Lumb. Ain't you getting down sort of late this month? All right, Dog is with him, and what you carrying a lantern for a day long?
Well, my good and faithful Abner. Pah. I trust everything, satisfactory at this school in the morning. I trust worthy of the Harbin Jeezer of some rather. What in the world of the matter, Tillama, you said?
