John Barleycorn

CHAPTER XII
5/21

All I possessed were on me, and they were as follows: a pair of sea-boots that providentially leaked the water out as fast as it ran in, a pair of fifty-cent overalls, a forty-cent cotton shirt, and a sou'wester.

I had no hat, so I had to wear the sou'wester, and it will be noted that I have listed neither underclothes nor socks.

I didn't own any.
To reach the stores where clothes could be bought, we had to pass a dozen saloons.

So I bought me the drinks first.

I never got to the clothing stores.
