Well, I didn’t tell you about the money, but there wasn’t enough for all three of us to go by bus. Sheila was goin to have her first baby before six months so she had to take sixty dollars of the hunnerd and go by bus and eat good. Me and Slim, we had the forty dollars and some more him and Sheila still had, and because rent was due in two days we was movin out, and sendin clothes and dishes in two big old suitcases and a smaller one, by railroad, and then me and Slim, with that $48, was hitchhikin to the Coast right away, and eat good too but be on the bum with our thumbs and sleep in beds only part of the time, mostly in cars and trucks and parks in the afternoon.
