OR
Mike Fink i'm a Tight Place.
Mike Fink, a notorious Buck
eye hunter, was contemporary
with the celebrated Dayy Crock
ett, and his equal in all things
appertaining to human prowess,
1t was even said the animals in
his neighborhood knew the crack
of his rifle, and would take to
their secret hiding places on the
first intimation that Mike was
about. Yet, strange, though
true he was but little known
beyond his immediate z settle:
-Iiient
When we knew him he was
an old man-the blast of seventy
winters had silvered Ger his
head and taken the elasticity
from his limbs; yet in the whole
Of his life was Mike never
worsted, except upon one occa-
sion. To use his own language,
he never "gin in, used up, to
anything that travelled on two
legs or FOUR" but once.
"That once, we want" said
Bill Slasher, as some dozen of
us sat in the bar-room of the old
tavern in the settlement.
"Gin it to us, now, Mike
you've promised long enough,
and you're old now, and needn't
care" continued Bill.
''Right, right, Bill" said Mike,
"but we'll open with a ticker all
round fust, it'll kind o. save my
feelin's, 1 reckon"
''Thar, that's good. Better
than t'other barrel, if anything!'
"Well, boys" commenced
Mike, ''you may talk O your
scrimmages, tight places and
sich like, and substract 'em alto
gether in one almighty big 'un,
and they hain't no more to be
compared with the one I war in,
than a dead kitten to an old she
bar! I've fout all kinds O. var
mints, from an Injun down to a
rattlesnake and never was more
willin' to quit fust but that once
and twas with a bull!
"You see, boys, it was an aw-
full hot day in August, and I war
nigh runnin' off into pure lie,
when | war thinkin' that q dip
in the creek mout save me.
Well, thar was a mighty nice
place in old Deacon Smiths
medder for that parti'lar bizzi-
ness, So | went down amongst
the bushes to unharness. l jist
hauled the old red shirt over my
head, and war thinkin' how
scrumptious a feller of my size
would feel a wallerin' round in
that ar water, and was jest bout
goin' in, when Isseed the old
Deacon's bull a maxim a B-line
to whar | stood.
VI kA0Wd the old cuss, for
he'd skar'd more people than all
the parsons o the settlement
and cum mighty near KILN a
few. Thinks I, Mike you're in
rather a tight place-get your
fix'ns on, or he'll be a drivin'
them big horns O his in yer
bowels atore that time! Well,
you'll hev to try the old varmint
naked, I reck'n.
"The bull war on one side O.
The creek and Ton t'other, and
the way he made the sile fly for
awhile, as if he war a diggin'
my grave, war distressin'l
"Come on, ye bellerin' old
heathen', said |, and don't be a
standin' thar; for, as the old
Deacon said O. the devil, yer
not comely to look on
@This Kind O reach'd his un-
derstandin', and made him more
wishious; for he hoofed a little
ike, and made a drive. And as
don't like to stand in any
oody's way, l gin him plenty
,ea-room ! So he kind o passed
BY me and come out on t'other
side; (; and, as the captain O. the
Rangers would say,
