And Ah ares youdl now, contpa'ed wid dl dc gr€t ttophctt ob dc Good Book, whah shall wc placc Is.iah? Wb.h shall we place dis mos' rema'hablc ProphctP

And Sam Johnsing, about half way bacL in thc audisrcc, rose slowly to his feet, stretched himself, yawned weariln and remarked:-

"Pahson, you can put Isaiah in Uah place, causc Ah fixin' to go home."
