Some of the boys have been guy
ing us about that "Grasshopper" Sam
prummond who is engaged in the delect.
able business of cock fighting in eastern
oklahoma, and asking il he is any rela,
ton to US. Well, we don't know, but
we suppose he belongs the same clan.
There has been a lot of cussedness in the
family in the last few hundred years.
One Of them was hung ia Georgia a
short time ago, and it is altogether likely
that there are several more of the family
that ought to be hung. One of the old
ones in Scotland. two or three hundred
years ago, wanted a piece of land that
belonged to his neighber, but the neigh
Dor wouldn't sell it or give it to him; so
the old seed took his neighbor prisoner
and starved him to death. Then he BAN
boozled the king into giving him title to
the dead mans land. The writer's pa
ternal grandfather got mixed up in the
rebellion of '9S. and he and some of his
relatives skipped out for America with
out waiting 10 settle with the English
government. In fact the EnglIih gov,
%crnnent didn't know they were going to
leave-wanted them to stay right there
and take a prominent part in a large
sized funeral. But they couldn't wait
had important business in America that
had to be attended to. The family has
been guilty of much meanness, and there
has been several doctors, preachers, law
yers and authors among them. But we
never thought that one of them would
fall so low as to engage in cock fighting.
Thank fortune none of them can get any
lower-for there is nothing lower than
engaging in cock fighting for business
or pleasure, unless it is a newspaper that
advertises cooking mains and upholds it.
Yes. the family has contained some very
tough specimens. After all. if the aver>
age members of the family had not been
as mean as they were, they would have
been better than their neighbors. Which
is not saying much for their neghbors.
