ith vegetation and it lay just far enough away to seem a Delectable Land
dreamy
reposeful
and inviting
Tom appeared on the sidewalk with a bucket of whitewash and a long-handled brush
He surveyed the fence
and all gladness left him and a deep melancholy 1 settled down upon his spirit
Thirty yards of board fence nine feet high
Life to him seemed hollow
and existence but a burden
Sighing
he dipped his brush and passed it along the topmost plank; repeated the operation; did it again; compared the insignificant whitewashed streak with the far-reaching continent of unwhitewashed fence
and sat down on a tree-box discouraged
Jim came skipping out at the gate with a tin pail
and singing Buffalo Gals2
Bringing water from the town pump had always been hateful work in Tom's eyes
before
but now it did not strike him so
He remembered that there was company at the pump
White
mulatto3
and negro boys and girls were always there waiting their turns
resting
trading playthings
quarrelling
fighting
skylarking
And he remembered that although the pump was only a hundred and fifty yards off
Jim never got back with a bucket of water under an hour -- and even then somebody generally had to go after him
Tom said:
”Say
Jim
I'll fetch the water if you'll whitewash some
”
Jim shook his head and said:
”Can't
Mars Tom
Ole missis
she tole me I got to go an' git dis water an' not stop foolin' roun' wid anybody
She say she spec' Mars Tom gwine to ax me to whitewash
an' so she tole me go 'long an' 'tend to my own business -- she 'lowed SHE'D 'tend to de whitewashin'
” 4
”Oh
never you mind what she said
Jim
That's the way she always talks
Gimme5 the bucket
-- I won't be gone only a a minute
SHE won't ever know
”
”Oh
I dasn't
Mars Tom
Ole missis she'd take an' tar de head off'n me
'Deed she would
” 6
”SHE
She never licks anybody -- whacks 'em over the head with her thimble -- and who cares for that
I
