While Lum relaxes in jail, he has decided to write the sad tale of his memoirs as a martyr. Today, we find Abner dealing with his duties as town marshal, jailer, and Lum’s keeper.
Lending his ear to the cause, Abner listens to the journal that Lum hass kept to date. The tale is sad enough, though not very true. All that heartache and junk is sure to make good reading as Lum records his biography.
To enhance his woeful conditions, Lum wishes for a rainy day, a moldy crusst of bread, and things that will lend an unvarnished air of truth to his book. Anything to make his suffering all the more real. Maybe a few favors from Abner will help? How far will Abner go to help Lum in suffering?
