Audio is a little muffled, and with record noise.
Abner is eager for his trip on Monday, and already starts packing his satchel. He’s acting like a frog sitting on a hot stove. Is he planning on a cold snap? Lizabeth has him packing for all manner of harsh weather. Should he take along a book? How about Gilbert the Boy Trapper?
The phone rings. It’s Lizabeth, reminding her man to take his heavy underwear. Now what did Abner do with them. He has all weekend to find them, but now it has him bothered. Is Abner losing his mind? Is he coming down with something?
Lum checks to see if his pal is running a fever. Abner begins to think he’s dying. Should Lum call Doc Miller? Squire enters with a pitch for housewives to save their tin cans for the war effort. Will Lum figure out what’s wrong with Abner? He just might, just as soon as he digs through the extra layers of heavy underwear.
