without a move, whether to run or

Kentucky Moonshiner's Story Of an
Encounter in the Highway.
Alvin Partin, Bell county moon
sinner, has bad scar on his left side
near the hip. He tells remarkable
story of how he came by 1t, and his
friends, including Attorney John B.
O'Neal, Of Covington, corroborate
what he says, says the Courier
Journal.
II got tibet scar las winter" he
said. II got anuther one on my
head tibet l got at the same time, ;"
he continued, showing a large fur
row that reached from his forehead
almost to the crown Of his Uranium.
"Me an three other fellers had a
fight one day on the road. They was
drunk an bad fellers. I met them,
an one of them says to me: I'm
goin' to shoot you l told him: I
reckon not, but he says: Yes, I am,
an right now, too So / says:

barreled shotgun loaded with buck
shot. He pinted it at me, an tried
to knock it away, but / missed the

l had hit at it again it was goin' off,
though I knocked it a little to one
side.
II had on belt filled with II No.
A Winchester ca 'tridges. The whole
load of buckshot went among them
cartridges, 'splodin' 'leven of them.
Two weeks after that the doctor
picked some of the brass shells outen
my side. A piece of my hip was shot
off. When I was first shot I did not
think l was hit hard. I shot my
pistol at the Teller an he grabbed the
muzzle of it. The ball went up his
sleeve and through his arm. The
other fellers then came on for me an
l poked the pistol in one of their
mouths. Jes' as I pulled the trigger
the other Teller knocked my pistol to
one side an the bullet cut furrer
in the side OF his head. Jes' then
the other Teller hit me over the head
with his gun bar'l, and I didn't know
nothin' for three hours an was home.
In about four months I was all
