The Subtly Southern Reader
 
Picture
 Day three of "A Smatterin'" finds Katherine Anne Porter bringing us a Texas story "He" , from her 1965 Pulitzer Prize winning collection.
"He" was special, didn't feel the cold,
could hardly be injured and if so did not really feel it. 
Simple minded  and surely loved,
"He" was
a liability as times got continuially harder.
This story may well break your heart!

The END? That's the end? I guess that's how a lot of similar stories ended in those days.
