Surrounded by a hunter's home, a palatial bungalow with spacious,* well holstered apartments, a huge fire place, to ac-! commodate a six-foo^ stick of wood. \ Mr. J. W.

Johnstone had a hunting pre- j serve of 15,000 acres filled with game,' as deer, ducks, wild turkeys, doves, partridge?, phesants and squirrels. Also a beautiful lake teeming with choice fish, trout, etc. Here we featej for days, by our large-hearted hostess, Mrs. F. E. Johnston, nee Miss Elenor Nicholson, formerly from Edgefield, aided by that noble, interesting aid, Miss Isabel Johnstone. Take a Georgetown and Edgefield lady combined, if these do not surpass the meals served to the best in Paris, then 'I am no judge of what pleases the inner man. At Little Mountain an iron hoop was placed around me 10 prevent an explosion, but here no doubt Mr. J. C. Duncan had apprised these that the champion eater of Xewberrv had arrived, >so a block and tackle was on fiand for emergencies. At early dawn we bagged 12 squirrels before breakfast, was told as many as 300 of these killed in a month, hunting only an hour or two a day. On for the deer drive with 14 hounds. Mr. F E. Johnstcne and his guide, Mr. (Williams, placed Mr. J. W. Epting and your scribe on deer stands. Ai many as 17 dror parsed to and near ":s. Mr. Mr. J. W. Epting, also Col A. R.

On now bass fishing out in the ocean beyond the jetties, when to my horror Mr. J. W. Epting, also Col. A R. Rich o^on of Edgefield, both became sea sick and such cavorting and snorting was never equalled by all the monsters in the briny de;-p. A- boat alon.u: side 01 us caught sea bass. The e fish weighed 40 pounds each. When we hooked and landed a 100-pound devil fish our pilot ordered weigh anchor, put up the jibs and Doctor Folk at the wheel, so cur craft rode safely the huge billows and landed at the beautiful bungalow with our two sick sailors. not quite dead, but still breathing, but unable to partake of the sumptuous meal ; r -:J?c by tnac mosi mieresuus I { MIMNAUGH'S ! 1 . ~ & j# At a rapid rate ! ? and by so doing have h 15 ? . i* *V Amk ? f More r ?
