Annoyed Blister.

“The lightning played a good joke on my boy, Blister, tuther day,” related Gap Johnson of Rumpus Ridge. “He was feeling around under a tree when it began to rain, and the next thing a bolt of lightning tore a big limb offm the tree and slammed it down on Blister. You ort to have heered him r’ar and cuss as he dug his way out from under it. Made him madder than a scalded cat, to be fit by something he couldn’t fight back at.” —Kansas City Sar.
