Friends of Al Webb, genial
Treharne resident, were sub

old-fashioned
“razzing”
this
week following the publication
the past week of an Incident in
which he was somewhat injured
by his cow. The cow, for the
most time a friendly sort of do
mestic item, became infuriated
while he was leading it in his
pasture, and while the Tre
harne man hesitated to talk
with a neighbor, the cow de
cided to tromp its master.
Webb was knocked down, so
the story goes, and was bruised
in the encounter. 'No, I wasn’t
riding the ‘boss’,” said Webb
to his friends who "kidded”
him.
