black jack. / seen. one owe my Lizards
racin about over the big old dirty lookin
shut skared like the devil. Then he gin
a sort owe shake an twist, and he come
outen his britehes, an he tuck em by the
bottom owe the legs and swung EN- round
his head few times and then fotch EN-
down cherallup over the front CIV the pull
pit. You could've hearn the smash a
quarter oye mile! Nigh onto about
fifteen shortened biskit, briled chicken
with his legs crossed, a big duhI bladed
knife, a slab owe terbaelzer,-a pipe, sum
copper ore speciments, heep Of brokin
glass, a cork, sprinkil owe whiskey, a
shut, and three owe my Lizards few per-
mikusIy over that ar meetin' ground outer
the upper ind owe them big fax britches.
Wun of the smartest owe my blue Lizards
lit he'd fust into the bussom owe a fat
oman, as big as skinned hoss; an nigh
onto as ugly, who sot thirty yards off
fannin' herself with tuekey tail, and
smart to the last, hit commenced runnin'
down.
So she wur bound to faint, an did it
fust rate; Just flung her lucky tail In the
air, rolled down the hill, tangled her legs
and garters in the top owe a huckleberry
bush, an wur thar all safe, fair an quiet
when left.
Now old Bullin had nothing left on him
but par ov hevy low quartered shoes,
short woolin socks, an ell skin garters tn
keep off the cramp, an his skare wur on
him CROWN fast He wur plum crazy,
fur he jist spit in his hands an leaped
over the frunt ov the pulpit right inter the
middle ov the Plus part ov the kongrega-
ton, kerdif an sot In tn gitten away. He
run, or rether went In a lumberin gallop,
heavy like an old wagon hoss shared at a
locomotive. When he jumped bench,
he shook the yearth an hissef tu. Bon
nets an fans clared the way, an he he'd
purfectly far track tu the woods.
Well, he disappeared in the thicket, an
owe all the noises ye ever hearn 1t wur
thar In cirkle of two hundred feet ar
thereabouts-su wimen screamin-they
wus the skery wuns; sum larfin-they
wus the wicked wuns; sum crying
wus the fool wuns, sorter owe the Loven-
good stripe ) sum trying to -gir away ur
hide thar faces-they wus the modest
wuns; sum lookin arter ole Bullin--they
wus the curious wuns; sum hnngin to
their bows-they wus the sweet wuns;-
sum on thar knees with thar eyes shut,
but thar faces turned the way the old
mudturkil was a runnin-they wus the
deceitful wuns; sum duin notliin- they
wus the waitin wuns, an the most dan
gerous owe all owe EN- by durnd long
sites. tux big skeer myself, arter a
bibil about as big as brick, a discipline,
and a book called a kataplasim, a few
rocks, an sich like fruit spattered onto the
pulpit nj onto my bed; an as the Loven-
goods, durn EN- knows nothin but to run
when they git skard, l jist put towards
the swamp OH the krick. A l started, a
black bottil owe boldface smashed agin a
tree fornist me- Sum burned fool perfes-
sor dun this, who he'd more zeal than
sence; for / sag that any man who'd
vast a quart owe good whisky fur the
chance owe knockin poor devil like me
down with it, if the bottil UuS with nuthin
isn't as smart of old Squire Macfzmullin,
an he shot hisself with hoe handil, and
il warnt loaded at that. Well, you know,
George, | orter run fast-jist look at
these legs-I used EN- sum atween that
meetin crowd an the swamp, an they
haint kotch me yet.
Ole Barbely Bullin Gas they call him
since his tribulation with the he'll sarpints
haint preeched but wunst, and then he
hadn't but one oman tn hear him. His
Tex wus "nakid l cum into this wurld, an
I'm agwine outen it the same way eff I'm
spared till then" I'm told 'twar pow
erful sarmint--it was hearn three miles.
He proved that nakedness warnt much
arter all, eff you take the rite view owe
the thing-tEat hell sarpints of all
sizes was skeery, cold and trubil-
some, that it warnt expected of HIM,
poor, weak, frail one owe the dust to be
sarpint or lizard proof either-that wun
small sarpint owe the tribe owe mitchell
SEX ruinated wurld through a woman
while he wur beset with barrl full owe
EN-. An sixteenthly an finally, that SUIT
| ty Lovengood is the biggrst raskis, fool
and scarecrow ever hatched in the noun
tain range.
Now, George, that all may be so, but l
want you to tell old Grownhog this for
me-ef he'll let me alone I'll let him
alone; and eff he don't, eff don't lizard
him again l wish may be burned inter a
poultice. Lets go tu the spring an mix
little owe hit with this here whisky,
/ (shaking his fask) afore you start
Mind, tell ole Barbelly What | said about
another big skeer. with-say peck or a
peck and q half ore Izards--try and
skeer him eff you kin-goOd bye.
