Description
This "mostly German" county how thinks they can "talk what they want to" now that the war is over. Gets a bit violent thereafter, as he engages in patriotic fantasies: "I am a real yankey [sic] and I am getting damned tired of it if you get a club and kill a few of them then you go to the pen for it and about half of them are bootlegers they go on a little ways from here to another rail road and buy whiskey on the train."
