Pat, wrote at the beginning of hisnext letter: “Bridget, please don't dig the garden; that’s where theguns are." The letter was duly censored andin a short time a lorry-load of menin khaki arrived at Pat’s house anddug up the garden from end to end.Bridget wrote to Pat in desper­ation, saying that she didn’t knowwhat to do, as the soldiers had gotthe garden dug up, every bit of it. Pat's reply was short and to thepoint: “Put in the spuds," A hillbilly, seeing a motorcyclerider going along the road belowthe house (and never having seenan automobile or motorcycle be­ fore), grabbed his rifle and took ashot at it.His wife called out-—“Did yougit the varmit, Zeke?”“No," he said—“I didn’t kill itI can still hear it growling, but I sure made it turn that man loose."
