Hatfield Quits
Gum Play ToLive
On Shanty Boat

! Sisterville. w. Va, Sept. o.
George Washington Hatfield
brother of Devil Anse" Hatfield
central figure in the Hatfield
| Mccoy feud, has deserted the
gun-play, bad men and rough
stuff Of Pike county, Kentucky,
and become a "shanty-boater" on
the Ohio River. His shanty boat
is moored not far from this city,
at Mill Run, on the Ohio side OF
the river.
Hatfield is getting along In
years. Mountain warfare is too
strenuous sport for a man
seventy-six years old. Shanty
boating is much more peaceful
and a whole lot less dangerous
than fighting from behind trees
and rocks and occasionally out
in the open.
Has Squaw Wife.
So the other day the old feudist
from Pike County, Kentucky,
bade good bye to his old Ken
lucky home-scenes Of many joys
and lot of sorrows-and bund-
led few belongings and his full
blooded squaw wife into rickety
old buggy and drove overland.
1t is the first time any of the
many Hatfields have forsaken the
hills and taken to the water.
Like "Devil Anse," George
Hatfield has given up
his fighting proclivities and "got
keligion" in his old age. But if
anybody should start anything
Hatfield would just as soon shoot
to kill as not.
