Uncle Dick and Lisa's Old Time Animal Tales

     A long time ago, in Mason County, Ky., an old trapper agreed to fight a ferocious ram, the prize being a quart of whisky. The whole village collected to see the fight. Both man and ram charged at the same time, but the man quickly righted, and planting his foot upon the lifeless carcass of his foe, demanded and drank the whisky. Just at the moment of collision the man had dropped his head, and the nose of the ram coming in contact with the elevated shoulders, the animal’s neck was broken.
