I gotta admit I'm a little upset today. Dorothy didn't open the cafe until way after 9AM. Royal wedding.
Well enough of that.
Like I was saying this deacon/lawyer and his secretary drove out to the state park one night. Her truck driver husband and a couple of his friends was waiting for them. They yanked the lawyer out of the car and put a whooping on him using baseball bats and ax handles. They tore off all his clothes and threw them into the back of their truck and drove off with the secretary. They left the lawyer there naked as a jaybird. Luckily, he found a piece of his shirt and hid his self in it while he walked to the first house he come to, just outside the park. I reckon he ducked into the woods when cars passed. The peoples what lived in the house took him in, loaned him clothes, and drove him to the hospital. We never found out who these peoples was 'cause they never said nothing about it.
