Tells of a Great I Florida Fishing Trip Known. Dr. G. W. Garland has handed The Herald a copy of a letter written by his son, G. W. Garland, Jr., of Long Island, N. Y., to Dr. Garland's grand-' v son, a student in Princeton University. The letter tells of a great fishing trip recently enjoyed by Mr. GarV land in the West Indies. The trip from Miami was made by airplane, the distance, 45 miles, being made in 45 minntes. Portions of the letter follow: "We stayed with Mr. Hawkes, who > has a very beautiful place on the Halifax river. John D's place, a few miles up, doesn't compare with* it. Mr. Hawkes and I left for Miami by automobile driving the 270 miles in nine hours. The roads between Daytona and Ft. Pierce are very rough hut Mr. Hawes says he never had a , more pleasant trip. "From Miami we flew over to Bimin, B. W. I. There were 13 people aboard the good airship Columbus and a more pleasant trip I never experienced. We covered the 45 miles in 45 minutes and were out fishing in the Bahamas an hour after leaving Miami, and that afternoon made a srood catch including a nun ber of baracudas, ranging in size up to five feet. This fisb has long laws with pearly sharp teeth and will attack anything including man and it is said will take chunks right out of one's body like a regular man eater shark although they are very good | eating themselves when cooked, but the natives in some sections are said to be afraid to eat them. I also caught a Jack Cavalle weighing about 30 pounds, a very handsome ivi < x v , > V * fish with large eyes, which when taken cut are a perfect crystal like clearness, and make a beautiful ornament. "For awhile we caught no fish, and our skipper said we were on good ground and he sought the reason for our failure and discovered a Very large hammerhead shark trailing us after the fish we had tied to a line trailing in the water back of the boat. We soon had the shark line out with a fish on the hook for bait i and watched Mr. Shark come up and j take it and after giving him time to j swallow it well, three is us heaved to J on the other end of the line and it j was all we could do to hold on with- j out being pulled overboard, but we I finally got him near enough to shoot him, when we added him to our string at the back of the boat. He was estimated to weigh one thousand pounds, and was about 12 feet long. This ended our day's sport, and we wer glad to go in as we were tired and the sea was getting too j rough from the storm which was' approaching. | "For the next two days we were not able to to go out on the banks on account of the severe storm so we had fun around the islands of JBimini seeing the natives climb eocoanut tree like monkeys and dive for small coins. During this time we went fishing for bone fish in the shallow protected bay, fcbe waters of which are as clear as a crystal, and the fish are easily seen. The bone fish range in size from 2 to 5 pounds and are very game. They feed in the shallow water and root like hogs, usually with , back fin sticking out wihich you watch for, it shines like mother of pearl above the water. Another indication of their presence is the white coral mud they stir up in tne water with their nose. The are called bone fish for the reason that they have three bones in their throat, with which they crush their food. We saw the natives catch a hundred of them with a net right in front of the hotel. "There are a few native whites on Bimini called Conks for the reason that they subsist mainly on the conk which they remove from the shell by breaking the big spiral end with a hammer when the meat can be removed. The conk are in abundance and are gathered somewhat like clams on Long Island except they are not so plentiful, and a glass bottomed bucket is used to espy them on the bottom. The human "Conk" is a very sorry looking specimen of white man, while the shells he gathers are most colorful and beautiful. "On the fourth day the sea had calmed and we went to Gun Key and on the way caught some baracuda and two large mutton fish, weighing between thirty and forty pounds, red in color, very pretty to look at, a large grouper weighing 40 pounds like Joseph with a coat of many colors. To me came the prize of the day, a hundred pound amber jack, which furnished real excitement for | almost an hour, until I was almost exhausted, but I successfully landed him on board by the aid of the captain with the gaff hook. Also -got anofher very lively one weighing 50 pounds later in the day. Mr. Hawkes caught five big sail fish, (so called because he has a very large fin on his back when raised looks like the sail on a Chinest Junk and when lowered fit into a sort of groove in the fish's back). The sail fish furnished muoh sport. We were able to watch him for some time following us. He has a long upper jaw, like sword fish, with yrhich he strikes the bait, which is his method of killing prey. He then comes up and swallows it (it is very nepessary to give him plenty of line at this moment so that the hook will go below his very bony jaws) then you will (have to land the hook when you await developments, hoping that your line will hold and that it is long enough to permit his long dashes to get away. The first thing he does is to go into the air I about 20 feet and then make off: while your line sings, as there is no stopping until he is tired. "On the fifth day, we went up to see the lighthouse keeper at Great Isaacs where a sea plane was rescued | recently. The keeper, who is a very intelligent and well educated negro, I trwrkt nc ochnra in o hnat ac flTPaf Isaacs is a large coral rock sticking up out of the water with no beach, so steps in the rock are cut down to t|ie water edge, and ihe landed us at these steps. It was quite thrilling as only one person could step off each time. The ocean swell brought the boat, under the skilled hand of the keeper, to the rock. A false step meant a plunge into 50 feet of water. "We came back to Miami on the sixth day, across the Gulf stream, in our little fishing boat, the Elsie. I never saw the sea so beautiful and calm as that day. "We drove back to Davtona on the seventh day, feeling that we had one of the most delightful fishing trips possible to experience." From the way they tussel about the floor "dance haul" is correct. MATHEW ALLEN MOYE. Born August 1st, 1845. Died February 2nd, 1922. An absence from home, and a press of matters, both business and domestic, bave combined to make tardy the tribute I have been wanting to pay to the beloved uncle whose mortal remains were laid to rest a few weeks since in nesuanci cemetery, mat silent city of the dead, in such close proximity to the busy marts of trade, | where he was once engaged in business, and on the streets where he was for years* a familiar and interesting [ figure. He was the youngest child, and only son (who reached a man's estate), of George Ward and Rebecca Spears [ Moye, and was born near Buford's Bridge, then a thriving village of Barnwell county. Deprived of his mother at a tender age, he became the care and idol of a fond father and seven devoted sisters. Though not robust physically, he left this ihome of ease and love and culture and answered his country's call to arms when a boy of eighteen, enlisting in Co. F, 3rd S. C. Regiment, and serving loyally until the star of the Confederacy set at Appomatox in 1865. I In manner he was affable, courteous, and kindly. In nature he was loyal, truthful, and peace loving. If I were asked his predominant charac teristics, I would say loyalty ana charity. Loyalty to God and the church, his country, family and friends. Charity that rejoiced not in inquity, but rejoiced in the truth; charity that suffereth long and is hind, charity that speaks kindly of h-is erring fellow-man and incites him to better living. This is the charity that actuated his long life and made him a power for good in his community. He was thrice married; first to Sallie Brabham, daughter of Josiah and Susanna McMillan Brabham, of Buford's Bridge, who preceded him to the grave thirty-five years. His second wife was Emma Rice Buist, widow of James F. Buast, a beloved minister of the Baptist church, who labored in this community for many years. His last wife, who survives him, was Chivelette O'Neal Stokes. In the coming November?but with many misgivings of both being spared to see the day?this couple were to have celebrated their silver wedding. God has ordered otherwise, but perhaps one faithful handful of its everlasting reward will be stretched down from the skies to clasp the feeble one that remains on earth, feeble, but faithful still. The funeral services were conducted by Reverend Mr. White, pastor of the deceased, assisted by Reverend S. O. Cantey, of the Bamberg iVhii v/ifa -Vieuii UUIOL i^aui u. Joining the Baptist church in his youth, the deceased ever remained a useful and consistent member A. Moye, of Charleston, and one sister, Mrs. J. T. O'Neal, of this place, now in the eightieth year of her age. We lay aside this gem of the olden time with sadness, fearing it will be long ere we look upon his like again. NETTIE OGILVIE SPEAKS.
