All the kids are sitting at her feet.
She has their undivided attention. Memaw begins,

One dark night in broad daylight
Two white negroes rose up to fight
Back to back they faced each other
Pulled their knives and shot each other
Up jumped the dead police man and killed them both
And if you don’t believe my story ask the blind man on the corner he saw it all.

The children sit spell-bound or is it dumb founded? Either way they ask her to repeat her story several more times because they know something didn’t sound quiet right.
Ahhh… Summer time fun with MeMaw. Dang, I love my mom.
