Evening Republican, Volume 15, Number 274, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 November 1911 — Most Fickle Man. [ARTICLE]
Most Fickle Man.
When Col. Willfam M. Howard, now a member of the tariff board, was electioneering for congress one autumn in bygone days, he struck a backwoods county in Georgia, and got very busj> talking softly to the voters. He was much concerned about a man named John, who was now for him, then against him, and always changeable. "What’s the matter with John?” the colonel asked one of his constituents. "Aw, you can’t tell nothin’ about John, colonel,” was the assurance. “He is the most fickle man you ever see. Why, he has had religion so many times, and been baptized in the creek down here so often that the bullfrogs know him every time he’s ’mersed.”
