Bird hunting pig and a tale of training and fate
A long narrated anecdote centers on a pig kept with pointer puppies and trained by Toomer to “back” game. The pig learns scenting and pointing, then tragedy follows when the schoolmaster dies and the pig ends up as bacon. A second fragment recounts a roommate’s superstition stake about white horses versus red-haired girls on Fifth Avenue, ending with the narrator winning the bet as white horses prevail in the crowd.
