Which Reminds Me

Yes, probably no one will ever recommend that you read that book "Scotty Kid: The Life Story of of 'Brother Tommy'" published in 1917, because its existence is quite unique. It speaks in the ancient 'cant' language of that certified Foursquare criminal and railroad hobo who is probably long since dead anyway. Why would you want to read Tommy's lengthy list of things that he did wrong, before he repented and reformed? Why would you imagine that I would know anything about that, only because my great-grandparents met him only later, after he was working as a Christian minister in China. No, there is nothing for us to say about the utter stupidity of those Foursquare criminals. That was not our problems.
