Well, I did it. Oh, it was a long rowin time in the cold,
with me worryin. But pretty soon I see a light way up
high. Then I remembered the woman told me to watch
for a light. Told me to row to the light, which is what I
did. And when I got to it, there were two men. They
reached down and grabbed the girl. Then one of the men
took me by the arm. Said, "You about hungry?" And if he
hadn't been holdin me, I would of fell out of that rowboat.
Well, that was my first trip. I was scared for a long time
after that. But pretty soon I got over it, as other folks
asked me to take them across the river. Two and three at
a time, I'd take them. I got used to makin three or four
trips every month.
