One summer day my father sent me to buy wire for our farm. At 16, I liked 36 better than driving our truck, 37 this time I was not happy. My father had told me I’d have to ask for credit(賒賬) at the store.
Sixteen is a 38 age, when a young man wants respect, not charity. It was 1976, and the ugly 39 of racial discrimination was 40 a fact of life. I’d seen my friends ask for credit and then stand, head down, while the store owner 41 whether they were “good for it.” I knew black youths just like me who were 42 like thieves by the store clerk each time they went into a grocery.
My family was 43 . We paid our debts. But before harvest, cash was short. Would the store owner 44 us ?
At Davis’s store, Buck Davis stood behind the cash desk, talking to a farmer. I nodded 45 I passed him on my way to the hardware shelves. When I brought my 46 to the cash desk, I said 47 , “I need to put this on credit.”
The farmer gave me an amused, distrustful 48 . But Buck’s face didn’t change.   “Sure,” he said 49 . “Your daddy is 50 good for it.” He  51 to the other man. “This here is one of James Williams’s sons.”
The farmer nodded in a neighborly 52 . I was filled with pride. James William’s son.  Those three words had opened a door to an adult’s respect and trust.
That day I discovered that the good name my parents had  53 brought our whole family the respect of our neighbors. Everyone knew what to 54 from a Williams: a decent person who kept his word and respected himself 55 much to do wrong.

No contact was made between mother and daughter during these years . The mother , having    39     her daughter’s whereabouts , went to the poor part of the city in   40    of her daughter . She stopped at each of the rescue missions with a simple    41     . “Would you allow me to    42    this picture ?” It was a picture of the smiling , gray-haired mother with a handwritten    43     at the bottom : “I love you still…come home !”
One day the daughter wandered into a rescue mission for a hot meal . She sat    44    listening to the service , all the while letting her    45    wander over to the bulletin board . There she saw the picture and thought , could that be my mother ?
She couldn’t    46    until the service was over . She stood and went to look .It was her mother , and there were those words , “I love you still…come home !”   47    she stood in front of the picture , she wept . It was too     48    to be true .
It was night , but she was so     49   by the message that she started walking home .   50     the time she arrived it was early in the morning . She was afraid and    51    her way timidly . As she knocked , the door    52     open on its own . She thought someone must have broken into the house . Concerned for her mother’s    53    , the young woman ran to the bedroom and shook her mother awake and said, “It’s me ! It’s me ! I’m home!”
The mother couldn’t believe her eyes . They fell into each other’s arms . The daughter said , “I was so worried and    54     someone had broken in.” The mother replied gently , “No, dear . From the day you left , that door has never been    55    .”
