September LIST the hunting season
opened and our nimrods have been
making preparations the last few days
before the first for wholesale
slaughter of chickens, providing there
are plenty Of them. Among the most
enthusiastic hunters here are: Frank
Faust, A. P Stoll, Louis Feucht,
F. x. Virnig VIM. Schreiner, o.
Brunnet, John Dombovy, H. Bares
and party. We interviewed several of
the different parties regarding the
number harvested, but the figures of
each member of one and the same
party differed so much that we made
rough estimate which would give
the combined hunters about 900
chickens.
