Then one day I noticed that Jake was nowhere around. I asked “Where’s Jake?” The proprietor answered, “Oh, he retired.” I said, “Retired? Then what are you doing to fill the vacancy?” The owner replied, “Jake didn’t leave no vacancy!” Davis concludes: These words have stayed with me a long time. I think often of how sad it might be if Heaven’s final judgment of my efforts was: “He didn’t leave no vacancy.” Would I deserve it? I hope not!
