Three Roustabouts, Wm. Kelly, John Hughes, and John Riley got into a Mississippi "scrimmage," in which they battered each other's faces so vigorously that their "next friend" would not have recognized them. Tom Kinnally got them on his charge and landed them in the calaboose. Kelly was sentenced to 15 days in jail, and the other two to ten days each.
