In Honor of Rufus Hussey
.
Rufus Hussey shot
A sling-shot like a rifle
Brought home the rabbit
It became a good habit
Those sling-shot meals were ideal
(Someone sent me an email
about this person..I am not sure
that is the way you spell his name.
He said, "As a child he was not
old enough to shoot the rifle
(the only family gun) for his
older brother had the priviledge
of shooting the gun.."So he
learned how to kill a meal with
a sling-shot..He was an expert
shot.)
