My sister mentioned that our neighbor told my father about this and said it was his mothers brother.

I love the turnbo tales. They are so good!
Northwest Arkansas sounds like it was a rough place to be. I hope that all happened a long, long time ago!
Thank you for posting these rip-roaring tales. NW Arkansas does sound rougher then than it is now. But I kept thinking about the rough world of Taliban, Afghanistan as I read both tales and I'm of the conclusion that there's only a very thin line between rough and civilized behavior. Most of us walk the line toward the civilized side but certainly not all of us.
