/ spent the night with Taylor Boy
EFT, who settled on Big Branch thir-
ty-five years ago. Big Branch has no
name and / would suggest that it be
called Boyett creek. II is the same
size as Brown and Maumelle. All
three flow together in Perry county
and form the Big Maumelle. When
Mr.. Boyett settled here there was a
blacksmith named Brown on Browns
creek and Mr.. Boyett named it Brown
creek for him. Mr.. Boyett told ME
of many interesting things. One was
of a man by the name of Waters, who
returning one night from down the
Maumelle saw a panther in the road
in front of him showing his fangs and
growing. AS he had no gun he drew
his bowie knife and advanced toward
the beast, holding the. knife toward
it. 1t got out of the road and he
advanced keeping the knife extended
toward it and facing it, he began to
back down the road. The panther fol-
lowed only few steps behind growl-
ing and threatening all the time. Wa
