Glynn Burleson and Joseph E. Loewenstein, M.D. "Sixes and Sevens" by O. Henry is a collection of short stories published during the late 19th century. The stories often revolve around the themes of irony, humor, and the complexities of human relationships, reflecting the lives of various characters in different settings. The opening chapter, titled "The Last of the Troubadours," introduces us to Sam Galloway, a troubadour whose enchanting songs and presence evoke joy and melancholy among those he encounters. At the start of the book, we meet Sam Galloway as he prepares to leave the Rancho Altito after a three-month stay. His departure causes deep sorrow among the Merrydews, the householders of the ranch, due to the joy his music brings. Sam, who embodies the spirit of a troubadour—singing and entertaining wherever he goes—chooses to visit old man Ellison, the last of the barons, at his sheep ranch. Their interaction reveals themes of friendship and appreciation as they share simple pleasures like songs and hearty meals. The narrative briefly shifts to details about old man Ellison, the challenges facing his ranch due to threats from a local cattleman, King James, thus setting up an engaging blend of comedic and poignant storytelling that characterizes O. Henry's style. (This is an automatically generated summary.) Reading ease score: 81.5 (6th grade).
