LIFE
IV
XI
This
was
the
beginning
of
a
new
era.
Pussy
came
to
the
door
of
the
building
now
whenever
pinched
by
hunger,
and
the
good
feeling
for
the
negro
grew.
She
had
never
understood
that
man
before.
He
had
always
seemed
hostile.
Now
he
was
her
friend,
the
only
one
she
had.
One
week
she
had
a
streak
of
luck.
Seven
good
meals
on
seven
successive
days;
and
right
on
the
top
of
the
last
meal
she
found
a
juicy
dead
Rat,
the
genuine
thing,
a
perfect
windfall.
She
had
never
killed
a
full-grown
Rat
in
all
her
lives,
but
seized
the
prize
and
ran
off
to
hide
it
for
future
use.
She
was
crossing
the
street
in
front
of
the
new
building
when
an
old
enemy
appeared,--the
Wharf
Dog,--and
Kitty
retreated,
naturally
enough,
to
the
door
where
she
had
a
friend.
Just
as
she
neared
it,
he
opened
the
door
for
a
well-dressed
man
to
come
out,
and
both
saw
the
Cat
with
her
prize.
"Hello!
Look
at
that
for
a
Cat!"
"Yes,
sah,"
answered
the
negro.
"Dat's
ma
Cat,
sah;
she's
a
terror
on
Rats,
sah!
hez
'em
about
cleaned
up,
sah;
dat's
why
she's
so
thin."
"Well,
don't
let
her
starve,"
said
the
man
with
the
air
of
the
landlord.
"Can't
you
feed
her?
"De
liver
meat-man
comes
reg'lar,
sah;
quatah
dollar
a
week,
sah,"
said
the
negro,
fully
realizing
that
he
was
entitled
to
the
extra
fifteen
cents
for
"the
idea."
"That's
all
right.
I'll
stand
it."
