Excerpt from When the Gates Lift Up Their Heads: A Story of the Seventies Josephus, dat yo´ clut´rin´ roun´ dar? Wha´ yo´ s´poses I hyah dis mawnin´? Yo´ t´ink ´case I dno´t git roun´ spry, like I use tu, no mo´, I don´ hyah nuffin´. Dem folkses f´om de No´f ´s gwine fix up de ol´ place an take bo´dahs." The speaker replaced a cob pipe between her lips and laughed a low, soft chuckle. "Take bo´dahs f´om de No´f in de ol´ place! My, ef ol´ missus´ ghos´ won´t r´ar roun´ de place ´nd make dem screach in deir baids!" The heavy step, lumbering over the loose board floor of Mammy Clarissa´s lean-to addition to her one-room cabin, ceased a moment. Presently Josephus huge figure darkened the small doorway.
