오 헨리의 단편소설이다. The first time my optical nerves was disturbed by the sight of Buckingham Skinner was in Kansas City. I was standing on a corner when I see Buck stick his straw-colored head out of a third-story window of a business block and holler "Whoa there! Whoa!" like you would in endeavoring to assuage a team of runaway mules. I looked around but all the animals I see in sight is a policeman having his shoes shined and a couple of delivery wagons hitched to posts. Then in a minute downstairs tumbles this Buckingham Skinner and runs to the corner and stands and gazes down the other street at the imaginary dust kicked up by the fabulous hoofs of the fictitious team of chimerical quadrupeds. And then B. Skinner goes back up to the third-story room again and I see that the lettering on the window is "The Farmers Friend Loan Company."
