Another coal oil cure was one time Lefty got hit in the top of the head with a double bitted axe. One of us had caught a snake. We had the snakes trial, found him guilty of something or other and sentenced him to death by beheading. There was a log behind the barn. Wayne had the snake by the tail and held him so he had his head turned up. He let the snake down so his head rested on the log. Murrel was the executioner, he brought the axe behind him to get a good lick and hit Loran in the top of the head with the axe. Of course out came the scissors to cut his hair and the coal oil can. there is more but you get the idee
