THE BRYAN DAILY EAGLE AND PILOT — DECEMBER 13, 1913
x
LONG LEGGEDEST MAN.
x
A TALL STORY.
x
    The long leggedest man we know is our friend H. Bingham Palmer. He can take steps above five feet long, in spite of which he is devoted to horse-back riding.
    Recently he came into the office to chat awhile, and we noticed that he limped.
    “Corn?” was asked sympathetically.
    “Nope—accident,” he answered, as answers one who doesn’t care to talk about something. That aroused our curosity, and we couldn't help showing it, probably, for he sighed and confessed:
    “I was ridin’ through the park Monday, and I was just ridin’ along and ridin’ along and not thinkin’ of anything in particular, and my foot slipped out of the stirrup.”
    “Well?”
    “Well, the darn horse stepped on it!”
