"That's business," I laid. "With you for a shill, we ought to be practically a kitchen annex to Welliver. How heavy have you fallen for Angel Todd?" . "I'm not going to fall lor any body," he aaid. "What do you get If you do?" I judged that Juddy waa get ting back in the groove. TVHAT that kid did with the SO " I'd given her made ma feel queer behind the eyes. She bought her some paint ana nrusnea, ana went pottering about, touching up that poor old house where it needed it wont. One part of it, though, the did up brown. She'd blown herself for some nanana-goia ana re gilded the old battered house motto, with funny lettering, over the door, so now you could read it "St, Francis & St. Benedlght Bless this House from Woful Plighte." While I was at my own work, I had cleared more space than the grubwagon needed for itself, You can't afford to overlook any bets when you're out for new trade. I stuck up a board. PARKING SPACE IS CENTS PER NIGHT That was all I could hope to get, seeing we had no shower, conveniences, or W. C, which means wire connections and not what you think in trailer lan guage, xne nrst nigra i naa two trailers, the second, five, Custom kept coming in to the Feederla, but It wasn't heavy enough so that I needed an extra hand. Juddy took to getting up early and coming over just the same. I could call on Ollie and Nollle for the morning rush, it any, while she drove around the country marketing for the wagon. When she got back one morning she found me stretching twine be tween the stakes I'd pegged out. "What are you planning to catch in your web, Spider?" ' . "It isn't a web," I said. It was, at that. Only I didn't want her to And out till she was caught. "What ia it, then?" I went right en fastening my lines. "I've still got that sign I had when I came here," I said. "What sign? Ohi Tourists Ac commodated.' That one?" I nodded and got down on my knees to tie a good knot "At Tambay?" "The name ought to draw," I said, "And what a site for a row of snappy cabins!" "Tambay, Tourist Camp," she said, and kind of laughed. "That would make us popular with the neighbors!" T NODDED. A "I'd have to think It over," she said. "Wouldn't It cost you an awful lot to build cabins?" "That's my lookout," I aaid. "I've got a little left in the toe of the old sock." "I'm not sure the University lease wouldn't interfere anyway," she said, "Let's And out Who's your lawyer?" "I haven't any." "This thing has got to be kosher if we're going to deal. There's a young fellow in Leverton named Maurie Sears. They say he's good when sober, and sober except week-ends." "I think he's my distant cousin or something." "Let's go." Near the end of the plantation line Juddy slowed up for pitch hole. I noticed a buzzard, high up on a bough, teetering-in the wind the way they do. The tree he was using for a perch was as ugly as he was; a dead shagbark, all charred and black on one side where there was a low limb. "Somebody been having a bon fire?" I asked. Juddy didn't answer. ' She didn't have to. I got it. They don't scorch tree trunks for fun in this part of the country. Besides, I'd heard of the Hanging Tree of Tambay. . After we got to town Juddy said, "They lynched a poor crea ture there just before I came to Tambay. I'm going to have it cut down." Well, I could see trouble there. The minute Maurie Sears set eyes on Jane Ann Judsoh l be gan to wonder whether we had come to the right place. Things were liable to get too personal, if I was any judge. I know that sort of southern gent to the bone. You can say they're a misfit in the modem world, and I guess that's right. Too much paat, too much casta, too little sense that their kind be long in museums. They live mostly by tradition and the catch words that go with it. The Civil War is their eight-ball; they do most of their thinking behind it. But if you're their kin or their friend, they'll lie for you and die for you, and their given word is a couple of points up on a U. S. government bond. You may want to laugh at 'em or cuss 'em out, but when all's said and done, you kind of love 'em. (To Be Continued) .
