When my father and his brother had an argument

When my uncle Rex and my father would have an argument my father would run til he got to with eyesight of his mother and then fall to the ground and Rex would jump on top of him and start to beating on my father. Well they both wore the bib overalls that were what farm kids wore in those days of the early thirties and my father would wrap his arms threw uncle Rex’s overalls and hold him so that he could not get in a very good punch as the distance was so short.

Well my grandmother would see Rex beating up on Delbert and she woould go out and beat on Rex until he stopped beating on his little brother. Seems that Rex always got the worst of it.
