Lum and Abner – Squire’s Confession. 420828

Lum and Abner in a Publicity Photo. 5x6. In this black and white publicity photo, two men, Lum and Abner, are posing together in a studio. They are dressed in suits and ties, with Abner on the left wearing a hat and holding a cane, while Lum on the right has his hands in his pockets. They are smiling at the camera with a friendly and approachable demeanor, creating a sense of warmth and familiarity. The photo has a vintage feel, reflecting the era in which they were popular radio personalities.

Curious happenings over the baby, and Squire’s change of mind have the gents baffled. Today, Abner and Grandpap play checkers, and discuss the matter of Mr. Fennelly, and signing the store over to Squire to settle legal debts.

As Lum inventories the stock in the feed room, Cedric enters to collect junk for a scrap drive. Abner thinks the government is just making up the need for scrap iron, copper, and other metal, but Lum tells otherwise. In the process, Cedric spills the beans on a secret over at Squire’s house. What does it mean for the mystery of the baby?

Squire enters, but Lum knows he has been lying to them. Is Squire’s game of tricks up?
