| Dunfer--or, as he was familiarly known in the neighborhood, Whisky Jo. We had up a lot of whisky, and went to playing high-low-jack for dimes, and as soon as the whisky begun to take hold of Bud we stopped drinking, but we didn't let him stop. On the table in the hall stood a glass, and a bottle with a whisky label on a tray. |
