ciated with the apostle. In addition to
these there is an historical fact which puts
all questions as to Wat TyIers connection
with the dagger beyond doubt. The new
seal upon which the perfectly craven
shield appeared (and which would have
taken at least four months to design and
engrave) was brought in by the mayor on
April II, 1851, or two months before the
death of Wat Tyler, which occurred on
June Is in the same year
Mr. Arthur Charles Fox Davies, the well
known author of Public Arms also says
fiction but adds that even this wild
legend was surpassed by the fury with
which anti-popery fanatics attacked Sir
Stuart Kni1I on one occasion in the be-
lief that he had placed st. Peters cross
upon the city arms. They were so short
sighted, says the author, that they mis-
took the sword for a cross turned the

Davis VS.. Terrible Joe Brown Kid
Davis, as most OF you know, came over
here from Silver Hill a few weeks ago
with two guns, a fighting dog and a
reputation of having killed seven men
He's been sort o. holdin' this town down
and bossing things in a way to suit
hisself Some of US have ached to try
him on, but we've been a leetle skeerr
to start in. That reputation o. his has
gone long way to make him cock-o'-
the-waIk.
Terrible Joe Brown has been hangin-
around here for years. He is called
Terrible bekase he is nursin' lamb
He's been bluffed thousand times ana
swallowed it. He's been kicked a hun
dred times and had nuthin' to saw. He
rushed by Cinnamon, and it's year
or more since he had free drink.
Slch was the situation of affairs
when Terrible gifts lonesome and de-
cides to pay a visit to Yaller Valley.
Bein' too lazy to walk he looked
around for a critter to ride, and may.
this court as a court never sit on the
bench agin If he didn't walk up to the
Kids stable and hawk on to his old
broncho- He did for a fact. though
nobody will ever believe il. and more
over, the Kid was right thar to see.

Vaughan was novicemaster. For jest
