End Of a Tennessee Frolic.
BY SAM SLICK.


Well, we danced and hurrawed without any thing
Of particular interest to happen till about three o'clock
when the darndest muss was got up you ever did
Jim Smith sot down alongside Bet Holden 1.-THE
steel trap gal and just give her hug, bar fashion
She took it very kind till she seed Sam Henry a
looking on from behind about dozen of gals then
she fell to jumping, and hollerng and screeching
like all wrath.
Sam he came up and told Jim to let Bet go. Jim
told him to go to far off country whar they give
away birthstone and throw it in the fire to burn it.
Sam hit him strate between the eyes, and after few
licks the fghtin' started. Oh, hush 1t makes my
mouth water now to think what a beautiful row we
had.
One fellow from Cady's Cove made hole in the
fryin pan over Dan fuckers head, and left it hang
ing round his neck the handle fyn about like long
queue and thar it hung till Jake Thurman cut it of
with cold chsel next day. That was his share for
that night, sure.
Another fellow got thrown into meal barrel he
was as mealy as an Irish tater and as hot as hoss-
radish when he busten the hoops and came out he
rared few. Two felers fit out of the door down
the hill, into the river, and there ended it in quiet
all alone. Aperfect mule from the town, hit me
wipe with pair of windn' blades he made kindlin'
wood of them and lit on him.
We had it head and tails for very long time, all
over the house, but if the truth must be told and
shame my kim he wrapped me nice; just to save his
tme noliered Inc Whipping he gave me made me
sorer oneasy and hostile like; it aroused my wolf
wide awake. The little scrougin past holdin' his
fiddle up over his head to keep it in tune, for the
fightn' was gettin' very brisk.
You are the one thinks l. and jst grabbed the
dough-tray and split it plum over his head He rot
ted down right thar, and / padded his tother end
with one of the pieces.
While was modifying my feelings in that way,
his gal slipped up behind me, fetched me rake with
the pot-hooks
julie Sawyer thar, and jst annexed 10 her
right off, and mighty nice fight it was. julie striped
and checked her face nice like partridge net hung
on white fence She hollered for her fiddler, but
oh, pshaw he could not do her bit of good, he was
too busy rubin first his broken head and then his
blstered extremities; so when 1 thought julie had
given her plenty pulled her off, and put her in
good humor by givin' her soft sawder.
Well, thought at first if l had drink I'd be
about done so started for the town, and the first
thing that saw, was more stars with my eyes shut
than ever did with them open. / looked around,
and it was the little fddler's brother saw what it
meant, so we touched horns without word thar all
alone, and we fit an hour.
AT last some of the fellers hearn the jots at the
house, and they cum and dug out, for we had fit
into hole where big pine stump had burnt out
and there we WERE up to our giiths, peggin away,
face to face and no dodgin.

Sprang from source impure, to say the least.
