Why, " gesticulating, " high up, so ! water run- ning under, so ! Cross over ; stop ! Pay money every time ! " "I tell you what it is, Coachee, " said Owens, resuming his natural voice, " I'll give you fifty cents. " The scamp was dumbfounded for a second; but see- ing that he was " sold, " and if he rode rusty, he would find himself in an awkward fix ; putting his hand to his mouth and whispering confidentially to Owens, said, with a wink that spoke volumes : " Call it seventy-five, and say no...thing, you know, about the bridges!" Owens began the season of 1856-57 in Philadel- phia, pleasantly and profitably; thence to the Baltimore Museum, cramming the house with enthusiastic audi- ences. It was during this engagement that he played Solon Shingle for the first time. " The People's Lawyer " 84 MEMOKIES OF was then given in two acts; Robert Howard being the prominent part. Owens was pleased with the quaint vein of humor which characterized Solon; and later on made a study of the garrulous countryman ; cut the Drama to farce length, introduced much new business, and so elaborated the part and altered the piece, that he copyrighted it under the title of " Solon Shingle.
