How Rastus Got His Chicken

On the day before Thanksgiving, a penniless man named Rastus vows to get a turkey for his family. Desperate, he steals the last available bird from George Green's yard through a fence hole. Unable to pull it through, Rastus breaks off three fence planks and flees, awkwardly carrying both the boards and the bird home to enjoy a festive dinner.
