The Little Colonel1935

Miss Lloyd Sherman:
Mom Beck?

Becky Porter:
What, honey?

Miss Lloyd Sherman:
What's a poorhouse?

Becky Porter:
Oh, that's the place where they send people who got no money.

Miss Lloyd Sherman:
Is it nice?

Becky Porter:
No, honey. It's a terrible place. The people there wear rags, and all they get to eat is corn dodgers out of tin pans.

Miss Lloyd Sherman:
Then I don't want my mother to have to go there.

Becky Porter:
Oh, why, honey child, your mother won't never have to go to no poorhouse. We wouldn't let that happen, would we, Brother Walker?

Walker:
I should say not.

Becky Porter:
Now don't you worry your pretty little head about things like that. The Lord always provides.

Walker:
Amen!
