Cannon told the story of the New Englander who was taken very sick. The minister called to see him. Digitized by VjOOQiC **My friend," he asked, "do you know that you are almost at death's door?" "Yes," said the sick man. '*Have you made any preparation for the next world?" "No." "Don't you fear you may find yourself in a bad fix?" "Now, parson," said the sick man, arousing himself, "let me tell you I've been picking up rocks all my life trying to raise a family here in New England. If they've ...got any worse country to take me to, let them bring it on." Mr. Allen explained that his presence on the Alton was due to the fact that he had missed at Memphis the boat on which he belonged. And the missing of the boat was due to the other fact that in company with some friends he had stopped a few minutes at the Peabody House to see how prohibition was working in Tennessee. But he was glad he had missed his boat and become a refugee on the Alton. And then, like all of the other speakers, Mr. Allen talked seriously and earnestly of the waterway movement.
