I was laying in bed this morning thinking about things that happened in my earlier life. When I was 16 or 17 years old Cecil Lewis took me up to the courthouse so a judge could declare me a legal adult. Maybe not a full fledged legal adult, but to where I could transact business, sign contracts and the likes. It had something to do with him cutting up our land and making Smithwick Mills Estates. I guess this was something his attorney, Dan Derrick, thought was necessary.
It was called having my Minor Disabilities Removed back then. But I guess they decided to put some new language to it now.
When I first read the article below I thought they were talking about starving your kids or something, but I guess that would be Emaciating of Minors.
Reminds me of what an old fellow told me one time. “Boy I heard you been masticating a lot lately”. I immediately starting denying it all, but he went on to explain that masticating is a regular thing that happens, when we chew our food. I sure was glad when we moved on from that subject, maybe about the same way any reader of this story is glad to move on this morning.
