It was back last October, I believe it was.
We was going to hold a tent service off at this college town, and we got there about dinner time on Saturday.
Different ones of us thought that we ought to get us amouthful to eat before we set up the tent.
So we got off the truck and followed this little bunch of peoplethrough this small little bitty patch of woods there, and we came up on a big sign that says, "
Get something to Eat Here." I went up and got me two hot dogs and a big orange drink, and before I could take a mouthful of that food, this whole raft of people come up around me and got meto where I couldn't eat nothing, up like, and I dropped my big orange drink.
Well, friends, they commenced to move, and there wasn'tso much that I could do but move with them.
Well, we commenced to go throught all kinds of doors andgates and I don't know what- all, and I looked up over one of 'em and it says, "
North Gate."
We kept on a-going through there, and pretty soon wecome up on a young boy and he says,"
Ticket, please."
And I says, "
Friend, I don't have a ticket; I don't even know where it is that I'm a-going!"
Well, he says, "
Come on out as quick as you can."
And I says, "
I'll do 'er; I'll turn right around the first chance I get." Well, we kept on a-moving through there, and pretty soon everybody got where it was that they was a-going, because they parted and I could see pretty good.
And what I seen was this whole raft of people a-sittin' on these two banksand a-lookin at one another across this pretty little green cow pasture.
Somebody had took and drawed white lines all over it anddrove posts in it, and I don't know what all, and I looked down there and I seen five or six convicts arunning up and downand a-blowing whistles.
And then I looked down there and I seen these pretty girlswearin' these little bitty short dressesand a-dancing around, and so I thought I'd sit down andsee what it was that was a-going to happen.
About the time I got set down good I looked down thereand I seen thirty or forty men come a-runnin' out of oneend of a great big outhouse down thereand everybody where I was a-settin' got up and hollered!
And I asked this fella that was a sittin' beside of me,"
Friend, what is it that they're a-hollerin' for?"
Well, he whopped me on the back and he says,"
