LiioW Uncle Smith Made a Believer of "JId Gent." Smith Wooldridge, of Russell Springs, Ky., a man about 83 years of age, a grizzled and bat tle scarred veteran of the Civil war, wears the blue ribbon., un- Questioned, for truth telling in these parts since the death of Sam Christman and the depart ure of Robert Tyree, his vener able age and his Santa Clause whiskers give him a 'kind of su premacy over the would be as pirants in that he can tell old timefa. His latest is an account of how he tamed a vicious cow, owned by his father,, when he (smith) was a mere boy. No. one could milk or handle this cow except Smitb. At one time the cattle broke into J'udge Green's corn. Smith and a col ored man, slave at that time own- J4?i M- -. , KENTUCKY a '.ed by Smith's'father, were sent ito drive them out. rJ All the cattle were easily got ten across the river except "01. Gent." She was in another pari . of the field. Presently, here she came and plunged into the river, while the negro scaled the nearest sycamore. Smith stoofi his grounds and oldly followed herfinto the water, and took her by the tail. When she reached, swimming water he begun tc climblherltail and landed on her back. The cow fought furious- ' ly, but the gallant Smith was not to be outdone. He caught her by the horns and put her tc the boftpm.R where the water was thirty feet deep. Then she wasiallowed to come to the tor: to breathe. This was repeated some twenty-five times. The cdw, now being thoroughly sub dued and completely exhausted, was allowed to reach the bank She emerged from the water, drew a few deep breaths, shoot the water from her dripping hide and set off for the house, dis playing all the docility of the ily. From this time on she was what her name . .. .Qd Gent." After this Smith's in valid mother and little sister could handle the cow with per fect safety. This ordeal greatly erihanced the value of the cow it not only rendering her harm less but doubled her utility in that she played the role of sad clle horse as well as milk cow. Written by W. T.
