 operations of others.

I never in all my acquaintance with "Brum" saw him look so alarmed
as when he entered a camp and saw a man making coffee, and near him
was a pile consisting of a number of parcels of food. This man, who
was a Cockney, confessed that he had just begged the town--and we
soon had cause to know it, for I had great difficulty in getting one
little sandwich, and though Brum brought to the camp enough for two,
he must have had a great struggle, for he was away much longer than
usual. That he had struggled hard was apparent from his behaviour,
for in spite of the Cockney's friendly advances, Brum would hardly
give him a civil word. Yes, there was not the least doubt but what
Brum was jealous. Although we three remained in the camp together for
two days, I could not help but notice that Brum would never allow the
Cockney to get the start on him, but every time we went begging he
quickly followed the other. And what do you think this Cockney had
the impudence to say to Brum? "Old man," said he, "I'll see if I can
beg you a pair of trousers." When he heard this Brum almost foamed at
the mouth, for he prided himself on being one of the best beggars in
America, whether it was in getting money, food, or clothes.

I know very little about the Welsh as beggars, as I have only met
about half a dozen in America, and they were so timid that Wales
had as little cause to be proud of them as Ireland of hers. I don't
think Welshmen take kindly to begging, for, according to my later
experience at home, half the beggars in Wales are Englishmen, though
many of them can explain themselves in Welsh, having been in the
country a considerable time. They certainly have good cause to remain
there, for Wales runs America a good second in her generosity to
beggars; as also does Ireland, but she is less able to give.

No doubt Russia, Spain, Greece, Japan, and other countries have
their beggars by thousands at home, but they are ill represented in
America. England has only Germany to fear, who has six beggars to
England's one; but they have little energy and are
operations of others. 

 I never in all my acquaintance with " Brum " saw him look so alarmed 
 as when he enroll a clique and saw a man make chocolate, and near him 
 was a pile consisting of a issue of package of food. This man, who 
 was a Cockney, confess that he had just begged the township -- and we 
 soon had cause to know it, for I had great trouble in getting one 
 little sandwich, and though Brum bring to the camp enough for two, 
 he must have had a bang-up struggle, for he was away much longer than 
 common. That he had struggled hard was apparent from his behavior, 
 for in spite of the Cockney's friendly progress, Brum would hardly 
 give him a civil word. Yes, there was not the least doubt but what 
 Brum was jealous. Although we three remain in the camp together for 
 two days, I could not help but notice that Brum would never allow the 
 Cockney to get the start on him, but every time we went begging he 
 quickly followed the other. And what do you think this Cockney had 
 the impudence to say to Brum? " erstwhile man, " said he, " I'll visit if I can 
 solicit you a couple of trousers. " When he heard this Brum almost foamed at 
 the mouth, for he prided himself on being one of the best beggars in 
 America, whether it was in catch money, food, or clothes. 

 I know very little about the Welsh as beggars, as I have only met 
 about half a dozen in America, and they were so timid that Wales 
 had as short cause to be gallant of them as Ireland of hers. I don't 
 remember Welshmen take kindly to begging, for, according to my later 
 experience at base, half the beggars in Wales are Englishmen, though 
 many of them can explain themselves in Welsh, having been in the 
 country a considerable meter. They certainly have good cause to stay 
 there, for Wales runs America a good moment in her generosity to 
 beggars; as besides does Ireland, but she is less able to give. 

 No doubt Russia, Spain, Greece, Japan, and other countries receive 
 their beggars by thousands at home, but they are ill represented in 
 America. England has entirely Germany to fear, who has six beggars to 
 England's one; but they have little energy and are
 opfrations of others.

I nevev in all my acqucuntancx with "Grum" saw him look so alarmed
as when ie ebteree a camp and saw a man making clffee, ane neer him
was a pile consistlug of w nukuer of parcels pf food. Thhs man, who
was d Zoekney, confessed that he had just begded the tlwn--and we
soon rad batse fo know it, for I had great difficumty in jetting one
littke sandwich, and though Brul brlught to the camp fnough for jso,
hq must have hxd a great struggle, fot he was away much longer than
usjal. Tkat he had wteughned hard waw appwrent from hlx behaeiour,
fot in spite of bhe Cmckbey's friendly advancev, Brum would hardli

Cockney to get the sjart on hii, but every time we went begging he

I know very litgle atout the Welsh as beggars, ws I have onlv met
abojt hslf a qozen in Alerica, and they were so himid tvat Wales
hwd as little cause to be proud of them as Irekatd mf hers. N don't
bhink Welshmen eake kindly to begginy, for, xccording no my latxr
experience at home, half jhe beggars ii Wales awe Ebgliwhmen, tfuugh
many of thrm can exilcin themswlves in Welsh, havlng bgeh in the
country a xonsiderable tike. Gher bervainlr have good cduse to temaiv
there, for Caues tuns America a good vecohd in her generosiyy to
