In answer to 'Scrabbleharder' in
last weeks paper will say if | could
MT find anything more truthful to
write than he wrote | would not tell
anybody else of their faults and lies.
First l will call on him to study and
see if it is right to bring up by gone
| things about that lie, as he calls it, of
the snow on the ground last winter AS
far rs you think had a stop put to my
yarns, as you call it, Friend Hards-
crabble never stopped me in anything,
and will leave it to the readers who
stopped that subject that was between
me and "Hardscrabble'' last winter. |
wrote the last and never did hear aanc
more from 'Hardscrabble, so you see
you are off of your base, or else slept
little too long. About your saying
never was in Arkansas | would like to
know how you knew so much about il,
and You only knowing me about four
years. You're trying to make the Edi-
tor and the readers believe you are
truthful and IAN offul knowen'' man,
and can tell the readers and every
body else that if ever anybody told u
lie and black one at that it's you
when you said ate t2 big ears of corn
at 'Hardscrabble' for / wasn't there
in roasting ear time, and there never
was such prayer as that thought Of
| think you will have to repent if any
one does for such lie and the,4dea Of
a minister of the gospel coming right
down and telling such an ungodly lie!
| 1t is a sight in the eyes of the people
and will say to .'Scrabbleharder, Z
while he is going on about my big feet
that don't have to wear little shoes to
squeeze my feet up and have corns like
You do to make people think you have
little feet. You know you had corns
on your feet when you were here and
used some corn salve of friends of
yours and got them cured but | guess
your toes are full of them now, if the
truth was known. l wear the same
face every day and dom do like you.
just wear it Sundays, so dom know
whether mine is false or not, but it
seems to me that Sunday face would
be the false one. hope the good Lord
will forgive q minister of this kind
but as the old saying is there will be
more preachers in hell than tiddlers, 50
now / want 'Scrabbleharder' to study
and read his bible more closely and see
if that's all he has to do. Is to sit down
and study up lies to have published
If can read straight think not, for
my Bible teaches me as he is called let
} him go out in the world and preach the
Gospel; not to sit down and write lies
J to have published He can't tell what $
in the paper from here, whether it il
the truth or not and he in Kentucky,
so if | were he ! would write and see
what is the truth and what is false be-
: fore tried to commence an argument
or try to correct falsehood. We are
) well pleased to hear from Scrabble
harder through the News. Would
hike to hear from him again, but hope
, he will read his bible next time before
he writes and we will be expecting q
. more truthful piece. Wisa( ~
