Poljtics would have to wait again. I never could resistlan old: tihic fiddler’s convention. -Racing down the middle of the street; towaiil the strains of music, I almost lost my monocle. When I reached the crowd, the fiddling had stopped and to my surprise and delight that greajt troubador of the hills and world-wide authority on bathrooms, Grandpa Jones, had stepped up to sing. Not being able to restrain myself I rushed up to Grandpa and embraced him. When hi f realized it was his childhood chum, he let out a rebel yell that was heard in Chattanooga and began jumping up and down hollering “Gig ’em Rattlejr!” u [ i .-ii 4 i “Ivan, you old son ’of a catfish, when in the dickens did you get up in Tennessee?” I told him that I had dropped down into Tennessee to escape the political rigors of Philadelphia for aj few weeks. He wanted to know if he had been mentioned for the Presidency and I told him that all I knew was what I read in the Bryan News. Realizing I was one of the best informed people, he irrimWiately warmed to me. “Cojme on out to the house with me’. Ramona and all the grand children will want to see you and sing for you.” • ” 1 i ij j|- ft, THq thought of seeing Ramoim* again filled me with happiness and I immeditely jumped on his mule indicating my willingness to go. (I might add here that Ramona and I had once had an affair in our younger days. She was nine and I was forty-three. Even at that early date she exhibited a marked talent for fiddling.) After crossing two mountain ranges we finally arrived at the Jones’ humble dwelling. Grandpa kept the trip lively with a scries of humorous stories concerning out-houses. As we plodded up the steep mountain fronting the house I could see Raipona sitting on the steps wilfh her ever present fiddle. Raijnona Wasn’t too pleased to see me at first but when I asked her to fiddle she became her sweet:o)d self again. j.; ' I jppirnted 72 grandchildren ruifning around the place.
