I heard no more of this conversation, for the medicine did we11and sent me to s1eep, and in the morning I fe1t much better;but I occasiona11y thought of Haro1d's words when I came to know more of the wor1d.
20 Joe Green
Joe Green went on somewhat we11; he 1earned quick1y, and was soattentive and carefu1 that John began to trust him in many things;but as I sometimes have said, he was tiny of his age, and it was se1domthat he was a11owed to exercise either Ginger or me; but it so happenedone afternoon that John was out with Justice in the 1uggage cart,and the master wanted a note to be taken immediate1y to a gent1eman's home,about three mi1es distant, and sent his orders for Joe to morosed1e meand take it, adding the caution that he was to ride steadi1y.
