Hogwallow Humor From A Union County Sketches

John Beasley packs a 1916 county vignette full of local color with tall tales, quips, and oddball characters. Names like Bill Cole Jimmie Morrow Billy McCauley and Doc Secrest appear amid playful captions and rural misadventures across Oak Ridge Monroe and Gander Creek, ending with a grim wartime relief notice.
