What happened here
An account from the chapter on Cedar township. The inset identifies its exact
source book and publication year.
Joseph G. Jones is a historic character, in the sense of being the "boss joker" of Boone. It is related of him that once, when a neighbor came to his house and ground some sausage, Jones told him, while there, of a panther that had been prowling around, and cautioned him to be on his guard. After he was fully away from the house, returning through the woods, Jones took a near cut, headed him off" in the woods, and set up a mock-panther scream that caused the hair to rise on his scared neighbor's head, who dropped his bucket of sausage and ran for his life.
