With axe and gun and hoe -he carved out a pioneer’s empire in the most rugged land this side of the Rockies, and even before his death he was enshrined as 1 one of the greatest mountain eers of the Appalachians. Big Tom had a passion for bear-hunting; a fervor he com-l municated to his son, Adolphus and so to his grandson, Ewart,' who today hunts over thej 17,000 acres of Wilson bear] lands in the shadow of Mitch ! ell and Big Tom. It was said of Big Tom that he could go out , in the morning and get a bear as rapidly as a housewife could step into the backyard ] to wring a chicken’s neck. , Although bear hunting brou ■ ght most attention to Big Tom, he was also known as a moun tain host, guide and traeker. ,It was he who followed a days-old trail to find the body of Dr. Elisha Mitchell, who lost his life while exploring the mountain which bears his name. This trailing over miles of the most difficult terrain was widely acclaimed at the time. In the years following the Civil *War, the Wilson liome was a favorite stopping place for travelers *and bear hunters in a section still a wilderness, as indeed some of i it is to this day. Mrs. T.
