Introductory Remarks
In the text, the author tells us when he was 14 years old he earned money by mowing lawns for neighbors during the summer days in Louisville, Kentucky. It was there that the boy got to know Mr.Ballou , a nice enough old guy except for the payment that should have been made on time. But in fact Mr.Ballou didn’t and even seemed unable to pay a single dime to the boy. There seemed to be nothing that could change the matter until one late afternoon in mid-July when Mr.Ballou motioned the boy to come inside his cool, shaded hall… It is really a never-forgettable afternoon, for it has changed the course of all that follows in the author’s later life.
