Uncle Joe Williams Swallows a Peach
Stone.

Last Saturday night as dark as it was
Uncle Joe Williams, our jailer, and
Squire Ounce Johnson, the Magistrate
in District No. went out in the north
west part of the county on a peach
stealing expedition. Ounce was the
pilot and steered his companion to Mr..
Edelin's orchard where the trees were
bending under a load of the lucious
fruit. Both men had to feel for the
peaches as it was too dark to see them.
Uncle Joe was eating at the same time
he was filling his basket. Finally Ounce
noticed that Uncle Joe's arms were go
ing around like he had fit. He called
to him but there was no response.
Finally he got hold of him and inquired
what was the matter. In few minutes
Uncle Joe seemed to come too and had
recovered his voice. He had gotten a
whole peach in his mouth at once and
it disturbed his false teeth. In his
struggle not to swallow his teeth he
swallowed the peach seed. They got
home shortly before day, Uncle Joe re-
fusing to talk to his companion. He
said at last; "Quince, l have got that
stone down but how am to digest it,
Ounce told him that his experience
was that whiskey would digest anything
Uncle Joe tried pint. 1t seemed to
go to his head instead of his stomach
and he has still got that peach seed.
When we last saw him he was going
around to the doctors to find something
to take that would dissolve peach
stone -Elizabethtown News.
