Hut Hoe Gave the Professional Billiard Thief a Lesson
A Washington Star reminiscence recalls William Hayden Edwards as a graceful billiard player who exposed a sharp in a Baltimore billiard room. Edwards challenged the drunken cheater for $50, won 44 points, and dismissed the thief with a firm moral lesson. Also notes on Sir Robert Ball’s sun life limit, a Lewiston restaurant dispute over a 5 cent steak, and a conjurer’s anecdote.
