A Scribner story recounts Dick a Black Harrisburg rail worker whose manic zeal saves lives at the tracks. He guards trains, accepts pay from the lunch counter, and sleeps anywhere while his devotion leads to repeated rescues. A misjudged arrest after a trip to Altoona ends with public sympathy and continued vigil.
