THE MAN WHO
WAS PEART
Bj M. QUAD
Copyright, 191!. by At?ocl?t*<J Lit
erary lYo*?
The old |>owuui hunter of the Ten
nessee mountains whs slvty year* old,
but was so strung aud hale mid hearty
that I knew he must have been a won
derfully tough man In his younger
days. I tried several times to draw
hi m out, ami one evening a* we sat
smoking, with his good wife on the
other side of the fireplace, he began:
"When I got married I thought I was
Jest the |>eartest thing on the face of
the alrth. I could outjump, outholler 1
and outfight anything 1 cum across on
these yere mountains I had never
heen licked by b'ar or man, and If any
critter was sboutln' when 1 hove In
sight" he shet up mighty sudden. Yes,
I was the hull thing, and It kinder
makes me lonesome to think back to j
them days."
"To the times when you was makln' i
a fule of yo'self !" said Mrs. White,
without raising her eyes from her knit
ting.
"Arter I had got married," continued j
Zeb, with a wink at me, "I thought to '
steady down, but folks wouldn't let me
If 1 didn't have a fuss with somebody |
about so often they talked that I was 1
losln' my sand. Mind yo', I didn't go !
howlln* around like a ragin' lion lookln' !
fur trubble. but the critters who were
achin' fur llrkln's cum to me. I had t<<
tackle six different men right yore t>> I
home In one week."
"And you was glad to do It!" said i
Mrs. White.
"Waal, I was no man to run for the
brcsli when a man cum along and sed
he was most dead for want of a
whoopin'. I took It to be a kinder way
to turn to and give him what he want- I
ed. One night In the summer, as 1 had
Just got to sleep, a yellln' starts up ,
about a half a mile away. It was a
I noise betwixt the roarln' of a lion and !
i the growlin' of a bulldog, and as It
drawed nlgher the old woman sot up
land >?fc>: I
"'/.en ? ime, om ?n?i m luc
of *11 creashun I* that?
"'It's a bullplne pot off the railroad
tracks nn<l makln' fts way n cross the
kentry." Mrs I.
" 'It's nuthln' of the kind." says she.
It's Gabriel aoundln' his trumpet for j
the Jedprnont day!"
"We was both mistaken, however
The noise came nlgher and nicher. and j
1 Mmeby wp made out that It was
man. He had come to lick me. ne ,
? had come flfty miles. It was a moon- 1
llpht nlpht. and I pot np and looked
1 out the winder at him. The alpht
made my hair curl. He was nigh
?even feet high and as broad as a
barn. He was as hip as a (riant In a
sideshow. When he saw my head at
the winder he (fives a roar that poes
echoln' over the monntlnp and says:
" Tome down. Zeb White!*
" 'I hain't pot no furse with yon.'
: says I.
" 'Hut come down and ohleepe me
and make me feel that life Is worth
I IlvInT
" Til come down.' says I. and not
wlthstandlnp the old woman hung on
j to me with tears and Mid I'd be kill
ed 1 went down.
"'Ar' this Zeb While? he asks In a
purrln' voice.
" 'It ar'.'
" Then I am the thankfnlest mnn In
all Tennessee! Zeb. I'm poln' to
squash yo" all to sqnashT
"I made np my mind that I was a
dead coon." continued Zeb, "bnt wonld
do the best I conld. We squared off |
and went at it. and In about two min
utes 1 was a surprised man.
"So was the stranper. He was nuth
ln' bnt a wlndhap. He was as flabby
as a poose and as soft as wax. and I
believe I could have licked him with
one hand tied behind me. It was over
In Ave minutes, and he was hollerln' for
mercy. When I let him up he said:
" 'Zeb. It was sqtiar* and fair, and I
hain't no complaint to make. Did you
ever see a clrcns?
" 'I never did '
" "Then po down to Bristol on Wed
nesday and see one. Tliar's all sorts
of animals, and one Is callcd an ele
phant lie kin lick you In two mln
ntes.'
"Men tne oi? woman nmi n oeai or
! curiosity about th.it elephant, as we
| hart never seen one. and so we got
' ready and went to town The circus
and the elephant was thnr. along with
a heap of other things. We pays our
money and goes In, and I says to the
feller Inside:
" 'What's that critter they calls the
elephant. If you please?"
"He p'lnts the wny. and we go over
and look at him He was the biggest
Itvtn' thing 1 ever saw, but after look
In' him over I says to the old woman :
" 'I reckon he's achln' to be walloped,
and I reckon I'm the critter to do It.'
"She begs and pleads with me not to
try It on. She p'lnts out the fact that
he's blgger'n our new shed and that I
don't stand no show, but I differed with
her. The stranger had put me .? my
mettle."
"'And how did It end?" I asked ss
Zeb made a long pause and Mrs. Wlilte
giggled In her throat.
"Whar was I when I come to tuj
senses again, ma?" he asked.
"Right yere to home "
"And how many days had passed?"
"FlTfc"
"And how long did I haft to lay
a bed?" ?
"Six weeks, but you was poorly for
three months."
"That's all, stranger." said Zeb as
he turned to me and then refilled his
