A short story by Henry Wallace Phillips

The Lion And The Boar

________________________________________________
Title:     The Lion And The Boar
Author: Henry Wallace Phillips [More Titles by Phillips]

One Sunday, when the new administration had induced a general thirst, a lion and a boar came at the same moment to a corner spring to drink.

"Have one with me," said the lion. "No, sir; this is on me," said the boar. From words they came to blows, and while they were in the press of combat the clock struck one A.M. and they had to go home cold-sober and disgusted.


IMMORAL:

Reform is just the thing for angels.
