Parodying politics and figures in a rustic quip
A witty colonial era style note mocks Khey as a pedagogue then demagogue. It mentions Sir Henry Halford hunting buffalo westward. Kilpatrick and Indiana tactics raised in New Jersey. Gath’s Solomon interview finds opposition to the silver dollar. Lame Deer resigns to fate.
