“Ben Davis” Now Defying His Enemies.

Abe Martin says: Now that all th’ regular apples have faded an’ gone, except perhaps a few gnarled and scrawny seponds, th’ psychological moment 'has arrived Ter th’ Ben Davis an’ he is monarch of all he surveys. Although th’ peer o’ any variety that grows in point o’ beauty an’ symmetry, he has his enemies, an' it is only after his competitors are scattered an’ gone that he joyfully appears defiant an’ handsome an’ wearin’ an expression whieffi seems t,’ say, “Take me or none.”
