The Cop and the Anthem
“But the cop’s mind would not consider Soapy”. What did the cop not consider, and why?
The cop did not consider that Soapy could have broken the window of the shop. He did not consider him because men who broke windows would not stop to talk to cops. They would run away as fast as they could. On the other hand, Soapy was standing right there. The cop then saw a man further along the street, running, and he ran after him, thinking that he was the culprit.
