"And knowing they were not subscribers, they take the paper and place it where they could get it."
Mildred laughed.

"Goody!"
"So Glavis (he is the Reverend's faithful lieutenant, you know), went out to look up Baptiste and have a talk with him."
"Ump!"
"He didn't find him."
"That was how he happened by here."
"But the funny part about it is, that they don't know what Baptiste is up to. They don't know that if he secures a judgment, he can remand the Elder to jail for six months."
