Printed 104 years ago today in The West Virginian. I cleaned it up a bit, see the original.

Found on the Library of Congress site.

As fun as it is to see Everett thump someone, the bits where he takes a well deserved kick in the ass are even better.

I'm a fan of us all controlling our violent tendencies, in real life, but it's a giggle in comic form.

didn't by

Old spelling or typo?
Either way, Mrs. True is an icon.

I didn't realize "beefed" had a meaning like that. Funny how usage changes.

My brain immediately goes to someone busting their ass after messing up a skateboard trick.

Whoa, is that the lingual ancestor to "having beef" with someone? Why are the Trues beefing?!
