From The Girl of the Golden West. Hope all you Hillsdalians enjoy this one!

Johnson: What have you been reading lately?
Girl: Oh, it's na awful funny book, about a couple. He was a classic an' his name was Dant.
Johnson: He was a classic, and his name was Dant. Oh, Dante! Yes, I know. And did you find it funny? Dante funny?
Girl: I roared. You see, he loves a lady-
Johnson: Beatrice-
Girl: How?
Johnson: Go on.
Girl: He loves a lady. It made me think of what you said down to the saloon to-night about livin' so you didn't care what come after. Well, he made up his mind- this Dant- Dantee- that one hour of happiness with her was worth the whole da- (correcting herself)- outfit that come after. He was willin' to sell out his chances for sixty minutes with her. Well, I jest put the book down and hollered!
