w. e. Miller and Mr.. Shcrard. We be
gan at 10 O'Clock and only the mar
ried Hogs and visitors had to tell
where they had been when they got
home the next morning and we can
say even at this late date in defense
OF the Hogs and their visiting friends
we never have any ladies ut any meet
ing or the hogs, we are sorry but we
just draw the line, that's all; but
amt to blame, deed I Amt, cause We
really have some time, and we have
everything. 'um huh" and you ought
to see the bunch, but we amt talking
bout soul; amt washing and irou-
ing nobody at all, just having gocd
time like men can do without any
harm being said or done to or abont
any one. The men are just good real
good beings, and the ladies' should he
proud of them. they are truthful, and
loyal, and can be trusted any where
with guard; 1 mean without guard
and the only thing that puzzles me is
that the ladies will doubt them at al,
but they will learn some day that the
men are real things, but think they
know that now, just don't like to adj
nit 1t, any way the men of the Hogs
are 1t; with big I and double IT.
here Is hoping that all the Hogs will
