RANEY, - Gen’lAg't for N. C KALEIGH —N. C. A CHATHAM” MAN’S EXTRAVAGANCE. Many years ago our Senior was accused ot having said he could tell a Chatham man by his breath—Fried Rabbit and Com Whiskey. He had forgotten all about it when he was called to that county on business. He passed the night at Moncure, and as he s -arted to leave the next morning, he was aceosted by a low, stout num. asking if he was the Stronach who had that story about the Fried Rabbit and Corn Whiskey. He evaded the question, and tried to pass on, but the old man insisted upon telling him a story of a Wake county man, who visited his cousin in Chatham, staying over night. They had for supper Fried Rabbit and com bread. For breakfast, corn bread and Fried Rabbit. For dinner, old fashioned blue Coilards, boiled with Rabbit, and corn bread. Just before sitting down to d2nner he was treated to four fingers of old Chatham com whiskey (a peck of meal mash, a case of concentrated lye, with a handful of dried apples thrown in to give it an agey color), and water quantum surticit. He ate heartily, and after tolling them how much he had enjoyed his visit, he toon his cousin by the Jappel of his eoaiand led him around out side in the chimey corner. ‘ • ousin Hill.” he said, “1 have hearn you complain of hard times. You’re mistaken, old feller. These ain’t hard times. Dammit, old man, you’re livin’ too high.” The Wake county man was right. These are not hard times.
