Daddy drove a cab in the 70's for the Basden family. He always spoke well of the Basdens. Gobbler's Knob was known as the place for sweethearts to go. There they could look out over the lights of the city. What else was there to do up there? One evening a call came in to carry a couple to Gobbler's Knob. Daddy took the call. The couple instructed him to come back in an hour and they would be ready to go. Daddy went back to the cab stand. About an hour later another couple called requesting to be taken to Gobbler's Knob. This was perfect! Since it was time to pick up the 1st couple, he would take the 2nd and save time!
The 1st couple was waiting when Daddy arrived. The 2nd couple got out of the cab. It didn't take Daddy long to realize that the woman in the 1st couple was the wife of the man in the 2nd couple! To his horror, he also realized that the man in the 1st couple was the husband of the woman in the 2nd couple! The four people began to rant and rave at each other! I asked Daddy, "What did you do next?". He said, "I drove away and left them all standing there to reconcile their differences!"
Daddy told me that if I did not do right and decided to do something wrong - even if I tried to sneak around - it would soon come out. He must have read Numbers 32:23 "But if ye will not do so, behold, ye have sinned against the Lord: and be sure your sin will find you out."
