Ready Money Scott

There is a story of his attending a large sale of tobacco at a warehouse in Augusta.


The bidders, not knowing Ready Money, figured to allow him to bid on a small lot at a bargain price and get rid of him.

However, after he bid on a lot and won it for a small price, the auctioneer asked?

"How much do you want, sir?"

Ready answered "the entire lot."

"Who is the bidder?"

"Ready Money Scott, and here it is; I want the keyes, sir."

Thus, Ready Money made a great of money on this purchase.
