A Famous Name
The local Message Boy in a
Scottish Border town was on his rounds and one of the newer residents had,
on this particular occasion, opened the door to receive the household
supplies. Anxious to put the boy at his ease on seeing a comparatively new
face he asked him his name.
"Walter Scott, sir" came
the firm reply.
"Indeed, indeed" said
the newcomer "That is very interesting. Yours is a very well known name
in these parts."
"Weill, sir" answered
the boy proudly "It suid be. A hae been deliverin messages here fir
about thrie yeir!"
