White gets his over the trap line and Elledgo gets his by way of the basket route. So on 'he first day of January White bought live dollars' worth of lumber and made him a trap and put it In the river and it Is four hundred yerds from the house. Ile goes to it six times a day. Well, from the first day of January to the first day of April he walked two hun11dred and ninety fotr Iiousand yards, which is two hiu ndred an(d eighty-six miles, six lun Idred and forty yards and he has knocked off three toe nails, fallen In tie river sevenl timles, wo.- out thlree pair of shoes, takeni twelve dollars worthl of (ouigli syr'up and cautglt lif teenl pounds of fIsh. Mr. El' ledge u )),t his baskets in Oh river at the same time and at a piace known as tlie "MeNinch lock"' jils on1e mile froi the power house. Ile wevnt to tlemii (!vOry day. So, from the first day of .lanuary to the ilrst day of A pril he walked one1 h1111dred and eihty milles, bought four bushels meal and onle busilel of onions for bait which cost himin six dollars, paid onie dollar and fifty cents for the baskets. Wore out thIree pairs of shoes, tore a very large hole in the most important part of a live dollar pair of pants, fell in the river three tilcs, and canught six pounds of fish. So he has cut his baskets loose and if the waters of Sa luda river carries them where lie told th1em1 to go and there is any fish In tilemti wlen they get tlere they will fry 3uick. lie has decided that the best way to get fish is to buy 1111lets. Ilut White has tile patience of Joh. He still goe:; to his trap six times a day, and is trying to buy lumber to make himl another onIe. Now Mr. Editor, I am no George Washington, but tho above statement is true and 1 am1 willing to sign it be fore a "Notorious Republican". So there you are. "Fish-hfook" "Power House", Ware Shoals, S.
