Lum and Abner – Abner Walks Out On Lum. 440807

Pressure is still on to serve those eviction papers, but today we find Cedric visiting the Jot Em Down store. Abner tells how he’s dissolving himself from partnership in the store. It’s over the misunderstanding on how to save grandpap, by buying thee old Dillard place.

Cedric tells how he used to hunt squirrels out there. Even getting a few with rocks, if he didn’t have his squirrel gun. Abner is only in the store to gather his possessions, and insists on having Cedric get his old sleeve garter from the stovepipe, where it was used in an old repair.

When Lum enters, Abner refuses to talk to him. The interruptions mean he may not get his garter back, but will he get over his misunderstanding over Lum’s plan to help grandpap? Abner decides to get out, and focuses on his duties down at the jailhouse. Will the prisoners realize who’s the boss, when he orders them around in making Little Rock’s out of bit rocks? Do they even have rocks?
