Whiteville. Oct. 25th. Everybody
down home who was in the least ac
quainted with uie always knew my
propensities for loafing around and
for going fishing. As I look bark
over my earlier days spent in the Ke
hobetb community below Waxhaw it
seems to uie that I never did much
of anything etse. I never had any
too much love for hatd work, proba
bly, -because I had uever found any
work of a sort that I could lov and
feel a real interest in. A fellow has
to find himself before he can do !"-
over one of our streaivs one evening
last spring and swung an even dozt-n
jacks icit of one hole in less than
twenty minuter. It is such slaughter
as that and the ease with which It
is done that causes the sport to pale
terest in fishing. Hutnan nature
always makes a man wish that his
game be worthy of his steel, whether
it be a fsh or a tirl. The thing that
is easiest to catch Is oftenest the
least desired and we want that which
is hard t to obtain.
This lettrr is not going to be as
long as usual. I don't want to crowd
