I thought I would share this story from my neck of the woods, as it was documented by the Fort Worth Gazette in 1884. It was also passed down locally through my family. I screen shot the article from the internet. I could not get a good photo of a copy of the original I have. Enjoy! Screenshot_20161206-210903.png Screenshot_20161206-210903.png

Your welcome. That article is in a couple of books but I can't find them. I have a microfiche copy of the original publication. I'll post some more that are just a few miles from my home.

I get out that way a bit. Been working some stuff around there and about to head out again after Christmas. Hoping to find something to contribute to the museum in Nocona.

Pyledriver, I would not be surprised if someone left a pull tab on the moon. Would'nt that be a kicker?
Ho, HO, Ho, help Santa if he gets stuck this year. Chimneys are being made smaller and cheaper in China.
