One of the corner wags, who was watching the outflow, spotted the hat and seized on the chance to be waggish, "Hey," he shouted, “are you going to take up a collection?"

The young man looked around 4 second before he realized that he was the one addressed, “Why, no,” he answered softly, “not if you and your organ grinder were here first.".
