Jim: The Horrible Crows

For most of the year, the makeshift stage is merely a hay wagon.

The mayor, decked out in fake whiskers and stovepipe hat, drawls his words to the delight of the audience. “One score and a couple of years ago, we re-united our fine nation. Tonight, we’re honoring one of the recipients of our Congress’ largesse – Mr. Thaddeus Jackson.”

Scattered applause while Mr. Jackson is helped onstage.

“We present this necktie to our guest. Congress may have freed Mr. Jackson’s people from slavery but it is up to us to free his soul.”

The wagon rolls away to raucous cheers.
