"I saw a great many kindly acts done as we moved along,"
White would recall almost fondly. "The poor helped the
rich, and the rich helped the poor (if anybody could be
called rich at such a time) to get on with their loads. I
heard of cartmen demanding one hundred and fifty
dollars (in hand, of course) for carrying a single load.
Very likely it was so, but those cases did not come under
my own notice. It did come under my notice that some
cartmen worked for whatever the sufferers felt able to
pay, and one I knew worked with alacrity for nothing. It
takes all sorts of people to make a great fire."
