Children's stories, Mr. Smith and chicken

Pen drawing, American

A white man with a beard, hat, and apron, bends over a chicken holding it by the tail and raising an axe in his right hand. Caption, in pencil, reads: "'Just you wait' says Mr. Smith. 'I've always lived in the city until this year and I'm not used to the chicken business but I think I can get you ready for market if you'll only stand still a minute.'"

Johnson, Clifton, 1865-1940
