Brother Rabbit And The Gizzard-Eater (Told By Uncle Remus Book 14)
In the course of time, the man who had been the little boy for ever so long came to have a little boy of his own, and then it happened in the most natural way in the world that the little boy's little boy fell under the spell of Uncle Remus, who was still halle and hearty in spite of his age.

Sometimes, as the result of this investigation, which was continuous, Uncle Remus would shake his head and chuckle; at other times, he would shake his head and sigh, but he always had a tale to share.
'Brother Rabbit And The Gizzard-Eater' is the fourteenth in a series of stories told by Uncle Remus :
"...Was grandmother talking about a tale, Uncle Remus? It must have been a very funny one, for she laughed until she had to take off her spectacles and wipe them dry," said the little boy.
"Dat 's her! dat 's Miss Sally up an' down, an' dey can't nobody git ahead er her. She know'd mighty well dat time you say sump'n 'bout double gizzards my min' would fly right back ter de time when de Yalligater wuz dribblin' at de mouf, an' ol' Brer Rabbit wuz shaking in his shoes..."
