    There is one tramp I know. His name is Mickey Delaney. he makes articles of tin and sells them. People buy many of these thing. Most of them are a Nuisance and are not welcomed in the houses.
    Some of them sleep in the open and some sleep in caravans. Some of them ask for money and others ask for bread and edibles. They say a rhyme or prayer when they get alms. A rhyme they say is as follow:- May God increase your store
    And put it in your heart to give me more
    They travel in groups of twenty or more.
