To be kno oked side of the head and pre-

hard, but such it was at Andes E. Budd' s
on Sunday. At noon he went to go in and
was struck on the left side of the head. He
screamed and his wife came out and was
struck on the arm; both retreated and used
the back door. A new kind of bee, much
larger than hornet or yellow jacket
had nest up inside the porch overhead.
They used the back side of the house until
dusk then called neighbor, Sam. Sweeten,
who said he was not afraid of bees. They
started battle, Budd with paddle in either
hand, Sweeten standing reasonable dis
lance off, but when a bee struck him over
the left eye he happened to think he had
business at home that wanted his attention.
Budd was stung three times in the battle
in the evening.
