IDB Productions, 2017-01-01. MP3 CD. New. Danny is the baby in a basket who was left on the doorstep and found by the couple, Hank and Elmira Walters. Their long wait of finally having a baby has been fulfilled. They welcomed the little baby boy and fight every day on what name will they call the baby. After 18 years, when Danny and his foster father Hank had heated arguments, Danny disappointedly leaves home and meets Dr. Kirby, a bottler and supplier of the miracle elixir, Siwash Indian Sagraw. Several years have passed and Danny strays with no direction, from Illinois to Indiana to Ohio, returning to Illinois, then to Tennessee and goes south, at times accompanied with Dr. Kirby, but mostly traveling on his own. He experienced working as a circus man, feral from Borneo, or Patagonian cannibal, at times just lounging anywhere, and all the time feeling inseparable with Dr. Kirby, seems like it is his destiny. In the end, like in many humorous stories, all troubles are relinquished as he finds true happiness with his biological parents. While Dr. Kirby found his lost love for which he searched for his entire life. </br></br>Donald Robert Perry Marquis was a humorist, journalist, and writer.
