"1 never knew any one but Pete

said Slots Boudell oi Gibson county,
Tenn. “and I never heard him says
word against it. but from the waybe
from there I can’t say that I gathered
the idea that Louisiana held out many
inducements for folks to go there end
stay—that is, if the district Pete Raises
went to was any fair sample of the
way things strike visitors in Louisiana. .
That district was Tangipahoa parish. I
saw Pete when he started for Tangiw
hon parish, and I saw him just after he
got back. That’s why I can’t get up
and shout much when I hear folks brag
about Louisiana, although Pete never
said a word. There was good reason for
that, though. _ .
f‘Now, I s’pose that when I rise to
remark that west Tennessee is the gnrden
spot of all creation some folks'll snicker »
and maybe snort. But they wouldn’t it
they knew how ’shamed they'd be if
they could ever strike luck enough to be
turned loose in Gibson county once, es-
pecially around where Humboldt is.
William Zachariah Ruines lives there.
“One day. two years or so ago. Bill
Zach said to Plunk—-Plunk was a nig- '
ger that worked for Bill Zach, and a
good one he was, too—‘Plunk,’ said
Bill Zach, ‘there ain't no kind 0' use,
we got to do something with Pete.
The better I treat him the worse he .
acts. He won't plow, and he won't
do nothing that ain't cussedness.
Kicked the buy mare in. the belly this
morning, and she won't beworth a pic-
nyuno for aWeek. Chnsed the old wom-
an from the cowyard clear to the house
and into the house and followed her
half way up the kitchen stairs. There
ain‘t any living with Pete any longer.
Something’s got to be done. (iuoss I'll
send him ’loug with you down into
Louisiana.’
“ ‘Gollyl’ suid Plunk. ‘Who'll fetch

mind, and the mule had to go with
Plunk, dead nigger or no dead nigger,
“Guess I forgot to say before that
Pete Rhinos was a. mule, and n slick one
