A lonely old man coming into the twilight years of a life lived with malice toward none and charity for all.

As you know, I've devoted my whole life to serving the people of my community, not just as mayor, but as tax assessor, treasurer, police chief, fire chief, and justice of the peace.

Oh, of course.

Of course I do.

Of course, old professor.

This is Milburn Drysdale, president of the Commerce Bank of Beverly Hills.

Well, I... Of course not.

Why, of course you can.

I might have had a chance of being the first lady of Bug Tussle.

I've run out of California cities.

After 12 campaigns full of name-calling, he can hardly stand a side of bacon.

Yes, of course, and I'm greatly honored.

That was a mayor of Poisonwell, Nevada.

It's the dream of every woman in the hills to be the first lady of Bug Tussle.

Yes, look, we have a visiting dignitary in town, and he's mayor of one of our Midwestern cities.

Instead of a party, I'm giving him this.

I ripped it out of the upstairs hallway.

Amos Wentworth Hall, a born leader of manhood.

And he's a personal friend of yours, eh?

Oh, that Mayor Hogg, always thinking of others.
