    At the time all the men were working at Philip's.

    At the time all the men were working at Philiphs. The steward was coming up one morning. The men were in the barn winnowing corn. The steward came up to the big door. He put in his hand to open the bolt. One of the men was waiting for him inside and when he put in his hand the man caught him by the finger with his mouth. The steward let out a roar, "get out of that dog"
