Letter from Georgia.
Guyton, Ga., April 26.?Dear Sir:
I will write you a little news from
Georgia. We are having some nice
rain now, which was badly needed to
bring up the cotton. We have been
having some lovely . weather for
crops and gardens. Some of the
farmers have plenty of vegetables
now, especially your writer. We
have plenty of turnips, cabbage, aqd
some squashes.
I don't think there is much danger
of the folks perishing here for a
short while anyway, as we can go out
in the creeks and rivers and catch
just any quantity of fish. Your
writer and two boys went last Tuesday
and caught twenty-five as fine
perch and catfish as you ever saw.
Then on Wednesday I thought I
would take a look at some of the
country here, making a trip of about
forty-one miles. On the way back I
came by the Savannah river and a
clever gentleman made me a present
of a string of river catfish that would
weigh at least twenty-five pounds.
On my arrival home I found an invitation
for my family and myself to
eo to Ebenezer creek on Friday to
a fish fry, which we accepted. My
niece, Mrs. L. E. Hutto, who is
spending some time with me, says
she never saw as much fish in her
life. I tell you, Mr. Editor, we are
living fine down here, and would he
glad for more of our kin folks and
friends to visit us. Especially in fish
season. we could give them a good
time and something good to eat, and
would be glad to do so. How about
you coming, Mr. Editor, and taking
a fish in the Ogeechie river? I
would be glad to have you and guarantee
you a good time.
Well, I will close for this time.
Hope to hear from you concerning
coming out to take a fish with me. |
