    “The travelling man that I know best is Jack O' Brien.”

    Share Share Post
    The travelling man that I know best is Jack O Brien. He is a very quiet decent man. He never begs in villages or towns. He sells laces and polish. He used to stay here for a week but since the people who kept him have gone away he now stays only one day. He never drinks stout. He often comes to my house. When he is selling anything he usually asks for alms.
