Revival of a Local Custom Sparks Beer Tradition
A long‑lost practice tied to building work is revived as a so‑called keg reward for crew members when chiefs signal the job’s high point with a tree limb and brush. An informant saw a chimney scare on a house under construction and queried if the owner bought the celebratory beer, though no final word emerged. Everett Lloyd and William MacLeod Reed plan a Bandera visit to meet J. Marvin Hunter, famed Hill Country chronicler, to view early Texas shouting bans and other relics. County Judge Prost Woodhull flaunts a new rare Stetson. reminiscences of the Grand Theater circulate as tales of old days resurface.
