  1. (no title) (continued)

    There lived in this district well over a hundred yers ago a Terry named Darby Hogan.

    (continued from previous page)
    Now, Darby had not much time to hide the guns when he saw the police approaching. Where did he hide them so well? He plunged them into the forge water trough which is usually filled with water that allways looks black and dirty from use. The police forgot to search the forge trough, although it was under their eyes all the time. Darby was a clever old fellow.
