November Mourns
“There were bits of straw in his hair.
A few years back, he’d been one of the strongest men in Moon Run. He used to tussle with anybody at any time, and his reputation as a grappler grew until guys from all over the county would make official challenges against him.
So they built a ring over in the town square and the gamblers rampaged through the crowd fanning fifties and giving points. The ex–high school football stars and gator wrasslers would try him on for size every Saturday. Venn would end each match by holding his opponent overhead and flinging him over the ropes.

But before they could gather the gumption to make a real effort, the moonshine got Venn the way it got nearly ever...ybody and it brought him down hard.MoreLess
