As late as 1929, one of the Napier boys was drilled neatly through the head by the enemy clan as he walked across the campus to go home when werd came that his “pappy wuz shot.” In the neighboring county, Pike, there was a settlement of moun- tain people who had intermarried for so many generations that they were a race by themselves. Most of them were washed-out blondes, some Albinos; a great many had cleft palates, very bad eyes and an almost unintelligable speech, an almost unintelligible speech, a lingo all their own. Now and | then, the inbreeding produced a flash of remarkable shrewdness; but for the most part, the colony was subnormal in mentality.
