[Ads-l] Heard: "primer"

[Wilson Gray]

"His record is a pr[aI]mer of small-time crookery."

When I was in the first grade, the first two "Dick and Jane" book(let)s
were referred to as the "pre-pr[I]mer" and the "pr[I]mer."

All say, "How hard it is that we have to die!"---a strange complaint to
come from the mouths of people who have had to live.
