Excerpt from Fragments From the King's Table

When servants in the southland work for people of wealth they are frequently given permission to take home the table fragments. Often these frag ments form quite a mixture, being made up of the remains of breakfast, dinner and supper. This being the case, the collection sometimes consists of many of the following things: Ham, fish, chicken, oysters, pancakes, cucumbers, potatoes, pudding, pickle, pie, salad, peas, beets and cake. Strange as it may ap pear to the reader, this variety is usually carried home by the servant in two pans.

About twenty years ago, the writer entered into the service of a wealthy King,' whose name is Jehovah. This King furnishes the finest table of any one in all the land; hence, after meals are served, there always remains an abundance of fragments, which the writer is permitted to bring to the reader. I, therefore, here present a portion of them in this volume.
