Turbulent scene with Billy in church causes nut thrower ruckus
Fragmentary account describes Captain Fletcher and Billy in a rural sermon where Billy uses nuts to disrupt services, drawing reactions from Deacon Switch and others as the minister attempts to restore order. The tale blends religious pageantry with local color and a comically chaotic witness to early community life.
