You lost your balance and then you fell behind.” HE TOOK A DROP. A. —“As I was going down Broadway I saw Jones take a drop all by himself. ” B. “Why, he is a Son of Temperance. I can’t believe that he drinks. ” “I didn’t say that he did drink. He only took a drop on the sidewalk—sat down heavily on the sidewalk, you know.”— Texas Siftings.
