Mister Ron's Basement #1497

This week we are featuring stories by M. Quad (C. B. Lewis) from his 1875 book 'Quad's Odds.'

The overbearing, over-persistent life insurance salesperson seems to have been a regular part of nineteenth century life. We meet one of them today in 'That Insurance Agent.'

Time: approx five and a half minutes
