DELIGHTFUL FISHING EXCURSION ON
SAVANNAH RIVER.
?
Mr. J. W Morrah Entertains Party at
Cherokee Lodge?Notes by the Way.
"There is pleasure in the pathless wood."
All the agencies of the twentieth century
can not extinguish in man the tendency to
return to the habits of his primitive ancestors.
Whether to supplement an humble
meal or to rove over the dark continent in
quest of animal specimens; or whatever
the pretext, the real actuating force is the
love of sport.
No matter how engrossed a man may lie
in his business or how far removed he may
be from the haunts of nature, he needs only
a hint from those more favorably located,
to induce him to get out with his gun or
rod. Such an opportunity was afforded a
small party last week through the kindness
of Mr. J. W. Morrah of Mt. Carrnel.
.Responsive to Mr. Morrans uivitauuu,
Hon. J. P. Gary of Pickens, Mr. Pacifist and
Sheriff King of Anderson, and Mr. W. W.
Bradley of Abbeville, with Mr. Padget's
two sons Frank and James, and Billy
Bradley thrown in for good measure, went
to Mt. Carmel on last Thursday afternoon
to enjoy a fish on Savannah River. The
partv was met at the train by Messrs J.
W. Morrah, Calhoun Harris and Bradley
Morrah, and immediately preparations
were made to move toward the fishing
grounds some five miles distant. Messrs
^ Walter Covin and Robert Cowan, in com"
mand of a small ileet of boats, each of
which was mauned by a trusty black, had
gone ahead to place the trot lines, and
bate some huudred or so set hooks.
In a little while the party arrived at
Morrah's Ferry where men, boys, horses
and conveyances were carried across to
the Georgia side in a large ferry boat.
The method of propelling this boat is in
itself interesting.
A wire cable about an Inch in diameter
is stretched (across the stream on which
two ordinary well whirls, set in a frame,
?oi/la +/? P/\nflS RhtAfhHll
to each endof the frame were also attached
to each end of tho boat. The river is very
swift at the crossing, which fact scientifically
applied, enables the ferryman to
take the fiat from side to side without,
the use of pole or paddle. All that is necessary
in crossing it is for tho ferryman to
shorten his line in the direction he is heading
and then "sit steady in the boatthe
force of the water doesthe rest.
Cherokee Lodge, which was our destination,
is located on a slight eminence,
overlooking 4)0 acres of perfectly level
second bottoms. It is about a mile from
the ferry on the Georgia side. The drive
to the lodge was not without interesting
features. To the right of the road was
pointed out the fragment of a large Indian
mouud that was almost destroyed in
the freshet of two years ago. Mr. Morrah
has in his possession specimens of beautiful
Indian pottery, some plain and som e
representing human figures. He has bits
of clay shaped like money in different
sizes, and burnt very hard. On one of
these there are characters somewhat like
the Roman characters I V. He has also
Indian bones, fragments of skulls, and
many 'other interesting 'relics, .washed
from the mouud by the freshet of 1908.
Right at the mound the river begins to
bend and it makes almost a perfect semicircle.
Mr. Morrah's lowlands are located
in this semicircle. Though the base of the
mound was fully 30 feet from the level of
low water, the entire mound was washed
away. The main current of the stream cut
across at this point, and in a siDgle freshet
deposited white sand four feet deep over
fully 30 acres of land.
~ ' ' ?? - iU.
soutn or tne landing on uie vxcuijsiu.
,-side, some hundred or more yards is what
is know as the "Hominy Pot". Here the
water on one side of the river is running
north while that on the opposite side is
running south. This place is notorious as
having furnished a watery grave for' more
negroes than any section of any stream
in the State. An old negro (half Indian;
named Hob Partlow is said to have hud a
fondness for this as a burying, ground.
His last effort to put one away there,
however, cost him his life. He knocked
the negro out of abateau but he was young
and active and he came up, got in the bateau
and clinched with Bob. They fought
in a death struggle to the bank and then
for three quarters of a mile to a house
near by. The negro was rescued and Bob
was sent to the penitentiary in Georgia
where he contracted consumption, from
which he finally died. He had already
served a term in the South [Carolina
i Penitentiary.
Cherokee Lodge was built and fitted up
by Mr. Morrah purely for the accomodation
of his friends. It contains two beds
several cots, plenty of chairs, tables, a
stove, cooking utensils,?in fact,, about
everything necessary to lodge the sportsman
comfortably. Hunting and fishing in
the neighborhood are all that could be desired.
On the night of our arrival there
were a few extra furnishings in the way
of ice and other things brought up from
Augusta. Our supper oonsisted of mounds
of fried chicken and healthy slices of boiled
ham, coffee, ice tea, corn bread ana
biscuit, with chocolate cake to wind up on.
The entire meal was prepared in the
building by a cook who lives near by, and
whose business is to serve without question
all those who stop in the lodge. Before
day on the following morning two of
our party In small boats went to visit the
set hooks. One of the trot lines had broken,
and washed down stream, but from the
other they took twenty odd pounds of blue
cat, weighing from a pound and a half to
three pounds. They remained away for
60 long that some of those who "stayed
by the stuff" expressed doubts about getting
any fish. Billy Bradley, who had got?ten
a peep at a pile of fried chicken in the
dining room, said he didn't see any use of
worrylBg about fish with so much fried
chicken in sight.
The lish were all prepared and cooked to
a turn. Never has there been more delight
ful tish placed upon table and never has
llsh received more undivided attention
from those sitting at table.
After breakfast we divided into parties
of two and three to each small boat. The
boats, four in number were pushed and
piloted by colored men who have spent
their lives on the river. Their skill in
handling water craft could not have been
surpassed even by the Cherokee Indians
whose canoes doubtless wound in and out
of the very caves and eddies that were
visited by us. We halted and fished in
every shady nook, going up one side oi
the river and coming down on the other.
Mr. Carey bears the distinction of having
caught more fish with hook and line thai)
anyone else in the party. Awhile before
dark we got together our fish and returned
to Mr. Morrah's home in Mt Carmel. There
a delightful supper awaited us, and comfortable
sleeping Quarters for the entire
party. Comfort as well as beauty of de'
sign are combined in a marked degree ii
this home. It was built to entertain ant
it is presided over by a mastor hand in th<
person of Mrs. Morrah.
Truly this was one of the most delight
ful outings that it has ever been our pleas
ure to enjoy. It was planned and exeeu
ted with military precision and yet even
moment of the time was enjoyed. Suet
hospitality brings sunshine into the heart
more of it would make a better world.

Mr. Lawton has finished putting in

Surveyors HereMr.
W. E. Lee and his corps of surveyors
roachod Bel ton Wednesday morning
and pitched camp preliminary to the beginning
of tlie final'survey for the trolley
line between this place and Greenville,'
They are now at work locating the permanent
line. All ,the preliminary surveys
have been made and as soon as the present
line is finished the matter will be
settled.
The surveyors have been running lines
from Belton to Greenwood and from Belton
to Abbeville. As yet it is not known
which of these lines will be settle upon.
Both Greenwood and Abbeville are good
towns and both want the trolley. There
will be some tall pulling done by both of
these towns.
The line from Donalds to Abbeville is
to be about a mile shorter than the line
from Donalds to Greenwood. This of
course looks like an advantage for Abbebut
on the other hand there is said to be
very much less grading from Donalds to
Greenwood so one advantage is offset by a
corresponding disadvantage.
The present indicatins are that the trolly
will parallel the Southern Railway from
Belton t? Donalds, thtfre it will either make
a turn and go to Due West andcpntinue
straight on down the railroad to Greenwood.
Of course there are advantages and
corresponding disadvantages to both
these routes. '/
Some time ago a rumor was abroad that,
the Southern Railway was making every
effort possible to prevent the lines being
built. This may or may not be true but
it has been officially given out that the
line will, be built.
In a short time we shall know when and
where the line will be run and then many
surmisers and guessers must fade away,
until then we can only believe half we see
none we hear and take all the current reports
with salt.
While the surveyors for the trolley line
are at work locating lines there is also
another corps working locating poie lines
or lines for the transmission of the Southern
Power Company's business The surveyors
are at present working north to
Greenwood and working this way. This
company has already contracted to furnish
power for several large manufacturing enterprises
in towns south of here and they
must build the pole line verysoonln order
to fulfill their contracts.?Bel ton Times.
