Indeed, to see old men with long gray
bead and glittering eyes, and youths
of sixteen all rushing to the scene OF 8
free fight, was grand sight to behold
When the Kerbyville delegation
arrived the fighting had not Jagged III
the least There was some fighting in
the creek, some behind the mill aud
some in the store.
The Kerbyville people did not get to
see much fun as darkness soon set in
with binding snow-storm, SO they
made so many mislicks, that the
fighting lost all its charms. The two
contending parties agreed to withdraw
70 the neigbboring wild cat distilery for
the night and to renew this fun the
following moraine.
But when the N ornjng sun rose to
cali them to life and sction, it found
them eli toe drunk TO see each others
faces, but they heatd on every hand
drunken curses aud each held his
enemy in u drunken embrace.
Thus you see that liquor saved Cedar
