IKE'S TALE.
—Attractive Casar—
■Deer Star ileeders.
Sal scz tu narrate hit abroad over
■ the land that Casar is a grate place
I in which tu live and move and have
your being. I told her that I wuz a
fare hand to try tu tell any thing;
but she sed tu do the best I could and
then they could sorter make a guess1
at what I didn’t get told.
Well the climate is fine, and the
scenery is jist the best thar is in the
United States this side of Polkville;
and while the climate fails in dry
weather the scenery goes on the
whole year around and thar haint
t been but little change in hit fur the
i last two hundred years. Carpenters
’ Knob is a standing rite whar hit did
l when Sal wuz a little gal a begging
her maw fur a dip of snuff. Every
day jist a little bit before dark the
sun sets rite due west from the cen
ter of Casar; and thar is sum advan-.
tiige in that, fur we know rite whar
we air at when night comes. Lots of
smart school teachers have been here,
but not one of ’em has been able tu
explain why the sun goes down in the
1 west from Casar.
It Ben’s Knobv stands crose to Casar, a
f litle west of north and shuts Us off
frum Burke county with alj hits
crazy doings.
Ajvay tu the south of Casar is
Lawndale ;n all hits glory, and-on
still further south is Shelby, whar me
and Sal has both been two times
apiece. Thar is a big train passes up
by Shelby, a little train conies tu
Lawndale, but Casar has tu put up
with a truck that runs by gasoline
and is out of fix most of the time.
We have the best kind of water up
here close to the mountains, but then
nobody don’t seem tu care nothing
about drinking any of hit only the
preacher!), and they don’t drink much
of hit only when they think some
body is a eavesdroping them. But the
main reason why everybody .likes Ca
sar so good is because of the folks
that live thar.
Thc-y air divided into two classes,
those that do as they pleas and those
(hat do as they have tu do. Me and
Sal is a sort of a cross betwixt the
two classes with rite smart of durn
fool throwed in fur good measure.
All of us chaws baccer and spits
jist about as vigerous as our grate
granddadies did, but when hit come*
tu cussing and telling lies we have
beat the record of all that have ever!
gone on before?
Away back yonder long ago they!
say that Sal’s people use tu be purty
well-to-do sort o ffolks, but they have
cussed and told lies till they have jist
about run through with all they ever
owned; but Sal don’t want nothing
sed about hit or they mite git mad .
and take a notion to disinherit me and
her in the final wind up, and we air
calculatin’ .on gittin’ both of them
tha*- hound pups when the estate is
divided up. Now with these few things
that we’ve said about Casar, and we
didn’t tell hit half like hit ought tu
be told, if you think you’d like tu live
up here jist come rite on fur we want
more folks jist like the ones* we’ve Al
ready got.
While we air up tu Ijate and a lit
tle ahead in a few things; yit we will
own up that in sum things we air
away behind the rest of the world.
We air slow tu hear the news of
what is going on around us, like fur
instance you might take the case of
that cold freezing spell of weather
that come on Jan 5 and 6 of this year,
well I’ll be confound if thar wasn’t
more than half of the folks at Casar
never heard a thing about hit till way
atter groundhog day. IKE.
