McCutcheon, George Barr, 1866-1928

"The Daughter of Anderson Crow"

He proudly handed a card to the president of the board and then told the
crowd that each person present could have one by applying to his son

Guaranteed.
Berth mysteries a Specialty."
Mrs. Bonner, upon hearing of his resignation the next day, just as she
was leaving for Boston, drily remarked to the Congressman:
"I still maintain that Anderson Crow is utterly impossible."
No doubt the entire world, aside from the village of Tinkletown, agrees
with her in that opinion.
