James in the fill By: [skullhead]

It was the year 1956, a pore woman from Mississippi named Angela lived together with her two sons, James a ten year old boy and Janet a moth’s old baby girl. They lived near the river were Angela made some money cleaning and mending clothes for the town people. The town people helped her in every thing they could, because she loved her sons with all her heart.

James helped her mother by working in the corn fills all day long. He got around with his bicycle donated by some of the tows people. You cud hear the ring of James bicycle bell every morning and every night on his way to work.

On October 31 Halloween night the town people made a big celebration for the good corn harvest they had, and they invited James to take part of the celebration.
That night a terrible storm came, James got on his bicycle and left the celebration worried that he’s house was dangerously close to the river and he knew that his mother was cleaning clothes with his baby sister.

Up ahead to his house the rode was blocked by a flood, and James didn’t know how to get around, he remembered that there was another way to get to his house, but it was across the corn fills and the rain had turn them in to mud traps.

But he was so worried that he decided to go across them. He hurried across the town ringing his bell, desperately hoping someone could help him rescue his mother and sister from the fooled river.

Hi got to the fills, then suddenly the wheel of bicycle got stock in the mood, he got off and started pushing it, but his feet’s got heavier and heavier until he could not move, the rain was poring and James was sinking dip in to the muddy ground, he started screaming for help until hi was out of voice, desperately he started ringing his bell hoping someone could hire it.

But yet again no one did, the morning after, the town people felt like they were missing something, something they were use to hiring the bell ring of James bicycle every day and every night, they search all around but James was nowhere to be found, they went to Angela’s house only to discover that the fooled had taken them down the river.

The pore woman and her moth old baby had drowned, but James body was never found.

Now days when it’s raining the workers in the fill swear they can hire the ring of a bicycle bell coming from somewhere in the fills

Ring, ring, ring ...
