Impersonating Conscience

Abner is convinced that Uncle Henry has a sense of right and wrong. The question is whether Uncle Henry actually possesses a conscience.

Lum and Abner was an American network radio comedy program created by Chester Lauck and Norris Goff that was produced from 1931 to 1954. Modeled on life in the small town of Waters, Arkansas, near where Lauck and Goff grew up, the show proved immensely popular. In 1936, Waters changed its name to "Pine Ridge" after the show's fictional town.
