One OF the peculiar features about

bonerack never stopped running until
they were back home.
Hodge bought the horse on the
strength OF that return trip.
That afternoon Hodge took the sor-
rel out for a little exercise. Pretty
soon It began to rain. the glue melted,
and when VIII saw his horses tall
drop on he nearly fell out OF the
wagon.
An hour later Herman was sitting
in his barn door. when he saw q man
running towards him who looked
something like Hodge and something
like O vigilance committee.
The man had buggy whip In one
hand and a horses tail in the other,
and he was travelling hell bent for
election.
Herman took one peep at him. then
he fell sideways out of the barn win
dow and hid for three days In his
cellar.
