ORIGIN OF THE PHRASE,
Who Struck Billy Patterson!

Believing that few if any of your nu-
merous readers know from whence Or how
the saying that heads this article orIgina-
ted, and having accidently become ac-
quainted with fact that it originated in this
county, / have at some trouble to ascer=
tain the particulars, and now give them 10
you as follows:
About the year 1880, the Commission
ers of this, Y ork county, Pa, when ma
king their annual tour for the purpose of
holding their aPpeals, stopped at Corner
Kelch, i'll Chaucelord tp., at the public
house Of Mr.. EPhraim McCleary. Peter
Ahl, Sr.. ]. W. Hetrick, and the verita6le
Billy Patterson were the Commissioners
Daniel Small being their clerk. Capt.
Patterson was naturally fond OF good
Joke, but his wife having died but short
time before, he was low spirited and sad;
aud the others. for the purpose of rousing
him from the lethargy INTO which he had
fallen, commenced running rigs upon him.
Becoming tired Of their jokes, he determin-
ed TO have some fun, cost what il might:
and going into another room he found a
little Irishmau whose name was John Mot
it. and told him that some person in the
other room had struck him. Johnny be-
came very angry when told tha, his old
friend had bren abused. and Immediately
went over into the other room with him,
and sung out at the top of his voice. and
almost choking with passion: ---"Who

more angry, and ss often as the inirsk
would subside iittle. he would again CITY

And going up to Small, who was laugh
ing loudly, he seized him By the thros&
and said
You dirty gipe, did you stnke Billy

when Johnny left the room.
But iIttle sleeping was done IN tast
house, for every now and then, during the
whole night, Johnny would cry out
"Who sthruck Billy Palterson?"
Or-"Show me the mon tha, sia.ucx

papers, from a statement made 10 the edi-
tor by Mr.. McCleary, al whose house ths
joke was played off.
The actors in this little comedy in real

of fun as ever, and will never knock under

Il Good Retort. w picked up good
anecdote the other day of an old Methodist
preacher who rode a circuit few years
ago. While going to one of his appoint
menis, he met an old acquaintance who
was one of the magistra tes of the county.
He asked the minister why he didn't do
as the Savior did-ride an ass. Because,
said the divine, The people have taken
them all TO make magistrates of.
