• Event

There is a story told about Henry and Becky, true or not, we don't know. It is said that Henry came home drunk and was bothering Becky, so she hit him on the head with a frying pan. Henry then landed in a barrel of flour with his bottom stuck. Somehow he managed to remove his boot and threw it at Becky and knocked her out. Someone happened to come upon the scene. This person threw water on Becky and she came too and then he helped free Henry from the barrel.
