Jasper County Democrat, Volume 22, Number 21, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 11 June 1919 — NO, HE DIDN’T RUN. [ARTICLE]

NO, HE DIDN’T RUN.

A colored boy Sam, while rambling through the woods, came on a hornets’ nest. With rare courage for one so young he flung a stick into the abiding place of the little alrplanists, with the usual quick results. Sam made a hundred yards in two-fifths of a second less than nothing. "You didn’t run, I hope, Sam,” said a white “gemmen” to whom Sam related the episode. “Well, mistah, I wouldn’t say ’zactly that I run, but a man in a field ’cross the road said he couldn’t see nothin’ of me sum mah wais’ down.”
