-Please Don't Go So Fast-
Chapter 4
[Newsies Unite]
The next day, Jack found out that Pulitzer had upped the prices of the papes! We could barely make ends meet with what we were payin' for the papes in the first place. And he did it just because he was rich and powerful, and didn't want to lose any of his money. We weren't going to take this sitting down.
So Jack and his new buddy, Davey, started sining a song. Everyone got real into it, and I even dazzled 'em with my tap dancing. But, it was decided. The Newsies were going on strike! Until they took us seriously, we weren't gunna sell papes. The problem with this was that people could buy their papes from other newsies. So we had to get all of New York in on it.
The boys kept callin' out places to go, and Jack asked me and Crutchy to come with him and Davey. We said that we would go. If we got who we were supposed to, everything could actually work. We were going to Brooklyn.
