James Baldwins' story "Why He Carried The Turkey" is taken from Fifty Famous People - A Book of Short Stories, 1912.
"Well, that is lucky," said the old man, smiling. "I happen to be going that way, and I will carry your turkey, if you will allow me."
"That is John Marshall, Chief Justice of the United States. He is one of the greatest men in our country," was the answer.
The young gentleman was surprised and ashamed. "Why did he offer to carry my turkey?" he asked.
James Baldwin was an influential American writer. He was an essayist, novelist, and playwright whose eloquence and passion on the subject of race in America made him one of the most important voices of the 20th century.
