Why Beulah Shot Her Pistol Inside the Baptist Church. Clayton Sullivan

surprised me. Which is why I said, “You’ve got to be kiddin’.”

      Robert said, “No I ain’t. He became a used car salesman at the Red Auto Barn on Pine Street. But one day, so he told me, he felt the call to be a preacher. Which is what he is today.”

      Robert sayin’ Brother Ledbetter had a hard time in school with spelling and spelled cat the wrong way kinda hurt my feelings. I felt I needed to put in a good word for Brother Ledbetter. And so I said, “It may be that Brother Ledbetter dropped out of school after the ninth or tenth grade and it may be he ain’t never been to college but I’m here to tell you I ain’t never met nobody who knows as much about the Bible as Brother Ledbetter does. He knows it from A to Z. Particularly does he know a lot about the book of Revelations. He can tell you what everything in there means. He’s even figured out when the second coming of Jesus is gonna take place.”
