Отрывок из книги

I kum to the conclusion, lately, that life waz so onsartin, that the only wa for me tu stand a fair chance with other folks, was to git my life insured, and so i kalled on the Agent of the "Garden Angel life insurance Co.," and answered the following questions, which waz put tu me over the top ov a pair of goold specks, by a slik little fat old feller, with a little round gray head, and az pretty a little belly on him az enny man ever owned: —

1st – Are yu mail or femail? if so, Pleze state how long you have been so.

.....

6th – Du yu ever hav enny nite mares?

7th – Are you married and single, or are yu a Bachelor?
