Hogs with their eyes sewed up! This
is something new for Oconee county, but
not for Rabun county. Georgia. A drove
of hogs from that section passed through
Walhalla last week. Several of them
had their eyelids sewed together with
cotton twine. Upon questioning the
drover about the matter, he informed us
that that was the way to subdue all kinds
of wild animals. The hogs would not or
could not run away, and had to follow
their fellows by the grunt. What do
you think of the idea?
