A Pioneers Experience With Pigeons

ANDALuSIA, July 10.
Editor ARGUs:--I see your newspaper
turns loose, once in a while an article
that has only suspicious flavor Of truth.
In the Unions issue of the 18th, it gets
afoat one about millions of Pigeons. 3"
This reminds me of veritable experience
forty years since. | was then as now a
citizen of AndalusIa In that autumn we
observed that fabulous flight of pigeons.
In the evening they seemed to incline to
stop in our neighborhood. They selected
the middle island between Dodge's gap
and the Andalusia entrance to our side.
for their nights rest. Seeing the mill
lions going to roost We went over in the
good boat Jessamine, expecting to load
her down with slain pigeons. Among
our crew was Adolphus Weckel, now
called ST., or something else, then a
young, very vigorous and active man.
The pigeons were there by the millions,
and so was Dolph there with a club.
There was wall of disturbed pigeons
before us, revealed by our torches, and in
the advance. Dolph, unrestrained by any
admonilion of ours, driving the innu-
merable cloud of birds that just eluded
his club. The result was one or two un.
fortunate birds and badly scared lot of
birds. We went home tired and sad
der man, and ever since have had no YES
tige of ambition to 60 for pigeon roost
with Adolphus Weckel before us to scare
up the game. Dolph is still living and
can tell you if we narrate correctly.
