Excerpt from The Man at the WheelIt was on a Saturday, and a good many peo ple had come in from the country to do their trading and get their mail. Some of them were pitching quoits and others shooting at a mark when we first landed, but they quit when they saw the man carry the mail bag we had brought, and went in and stood around wait ing for the letters to be sorted. They had all been drinking and were pretty noisy. When the postmaster said there was only two letters, and that they were both for Bud Johnson, a colored man, a murmur of disapproval went around, and several of them insisted on a new deal.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
