While in college Stevens committed an act which showed a violent streak in his character. A farmer's cows were allowed to graze on the college campus, much to the annoyance of some of the students who would now and then step in cow dung, especially at night. Stevens and a friend killed one of the cows with an ax. He later confessed this crime and compensated the farmer for his cow.A poor cow, where she is supposed to be, answers the call of nature. One of your sick, twisted heroes comes and steps in it and gets an ax and assassinates the poor cow.
#3Fan marks it down as an early showing of heroism.
Thaddeus Stevens, assassin of cows, you are hereby condemned to eternity in hell for your evil deeds.
