about twenty “shots” were made
the same day from all over the

where the picture was taken, so we
followed his instructions.
After taking off on a couple of
side roads, we finally hit the
Bachman Chapel church road. We
noticed a road turned off almost
directly in front of the church.
Something looked familiar, so we
stopped. Just as we had about de
cided it wasn’t the “mystery
farm,” we took another look and
turned off on the road for a better
look. We passed the house then
turned around. We looked a little

more closely, and identified a num
ber of buildings that appeared in
the picture, and right there we
decided we had it.
Over in the field we saw a man
raking v a field with a tractor and
pulled down , the road alongside
him. We pulled out the picture and
handed it to him with the query,
“Is this your farm?”
He identified himself as L. E.
Bobb, and after studying the print
a few seconds, said, “It does look
like it.” Then he began to point
out his tool shed, repair shop and
other building^ on the place. “That
little crepe myrtle bush over there
is right here on the print,” he
declared.
Mr. Bobb said that hfe and his
wife had operated the farm for
the past two years. He had worked
in a textile plant prior to that. He
and a brother also operate the
Wilson Grocery at the intersection
of the Columbia highway and the
Jolly Street road.
The farm has about 115 Wres in
it and Mr. Bobb aaid about 40 of
this was in full cultivation. The
farm is terraced and crops are
rotated for best land use. Mostly
small grains are raised on the
farm.
There are several head of milk
cows on the farm. Mr. Bobb said
he sold milk to one of the milk
companies for a while, but now
only sold to Newberry Ceramery.
He also raises hogs for personal
consumption.
And so it goes. There is a brief

By TED KESTING
Centuries ago in England a cer
tain Lord Churchwald and friends
were riding behind his hounds
when the dogs started a hare. The
hare eluded the yelping pack un
til, worn to a frizzle, he shot across
the field into a commoner’s yard
and fell in exhaustion at the feet
of a worker.
The man grabbed the hare alive
to hold for Lord Churchwald. But
the commoner claimed the hare as
his own. So the hunter sued. And
the judge ruled that since Lord
Churchwald had started the hare,
and his hounds had chased it, until
it was practically dead, the hunter
had ’ really gained possession and
therefore acquired ownership.
That decision is still upheld by
our courts today. The accepted
legal rule now is that you get no
title by pursuit alone, even though
the animal has been wounded, un
less you follow the beast and re
duce it to occupation—that is, to
actual possession.
Bodily seizure is not a must.
Mortal wounding, if you don't
abandon your pursuit, may be con
sidered possession on your part,
since you show a definite inten
tion of getting the animal ' for
your individual use.
A part of this law of the chase
is this accompanying rule: If you
start and wound a game animal,
s6 that its death is practically
sure to result, but another hunter
