DEER HUNTING IN GEORGIA.
A Couple of Successful Hunters in
the Southeastern Tier.
From, the Ra,otinsnUs (Ga.) DisDatch

From the Ratotinsrjle (Gd.) DisDatch.
Mr.. Israel Johnson, a young farmer in
the Eleventh district of Dooly county,
struck an unusual streak OF good luck a
few days ago. He was riding through the
pine woods, when ne saw two deer feed
ing lesuyely. He knew from their actions
that they would soon fOld themselves IN
the grass to rest, and he kept still until
they did so. They did not observe him,
aud he FASTENED home and got his gun.
On his return. and within a quarter OF
mile OF the spot he had left the two deer
resting, he saw a fine young buck alone.
He shot and killed il in its tracks. lie
then reloaded and proceeded to where he
had left the two deer. They were still
| resting, and he GOT off his morse ana sue
ceeded in getting WITHIN few yards OF
| them. AS they jumped up he fired and
killed bOth-Hne with each barrel.
A party from the Alapaha came into
Hawkinsvilie the other morning with the
SADDLE" or hindQuarters Of buck, and
brought along the horns, which were
given to the Boon Brothers, who bought
the venison for their restaurant.
Speaking about deer hunting, that was
an extraordinary feat performed short
time ago by Mr.. e. j. Ennis and his dogs.
Mr. Ennis lives IN the Third district OF
Doolv county, and was on his farm pull
ing fodder, when his dogs chased q deer
through his yard. 1t was a fine buck
with splendid set OF horns. The deer
jumped the fence, and the dogs followed
IN close pursuit. The deer made for n
swamp, but the underground was 50 thick
that H. could not get through, and only
opened an avenue for the dogs to follow
The dogs caught it. Mr.. Ennis was soOr
on the scene. and the deer was killed and
dressed.

The Memphis appeal. [volume] (Memphis, Tenn.) 1886-1890, 1886-11-26

THE railroad long ego surveyed and
located from this city TO Nashville, by
way Of SomeIvllle and Bolivar, ought
10 be built. The time is propitlous
for revival of a scheme in which
Gen. Nicely and Napoleon Hill took
the initiative some years ago. 1t has
everything TO recommend it. 1t is a
shorter route to Nashville than any
others that have been surveyed; it is
independent of all existing SYSTEMS;
and it passes through a rich agrl-
cultural and mineral region, the latter
abounding in iron and coal. Besides
this twenty-five miles have been
graded, and it will take somerville,
Bolivar and other county towns on
the way, and make Memphis in
dependent Of Birmingham in the MAJ
terof coal and iron, come citing htr
directly with the mines in
Wayne and Lawrence counties,
only 125 miles away. We can.

ties mentioned. j. O. Nicely, Ma
