Election days, muster days and court week gave . them the greatest 'opportunities; ,for the exercise of their gepius; and many were tiie pitched battles,sometimes of .game cocks, sometimes- of .dogs, and even, occasionally,, of men, that were brought .about by their inter ference: But these were among the least amus ing of their tricks, for 'sometimes bruised eyes, arid mangled hoses ori the part of the last-named, weie the cprisequerices of these collisions..

Every one possessed some manner of disguise, to prevent his being recog nized when out at night in pursuit of amuse ment, for they finally became troublesome and were watched- by the old fogies who didn’t ex actly believe in such -carryings-on.
