The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1909-08-25

Rev. Dubois and family and Mrs.
H. M. Hitchcock and son William
have been camping up the lake near
the ball park-and therein is rath-
er good joke on the reporter. At an
early hour Saturday morning at just
the second when his chubby form
was least adorned, he saw H. M.
Hitchcock go by at a rapid pace to-
ward the boat landing. Thinking
something unusual had happened up
the lake he hastily scrambled into
enough clothing to escape arrest and
pursued the worthy druggist to the
boat house, ARRIVING just in time to
see the object Of his quest charge
around the bridge and rapidly scale
the hill on the opposite side of the
lake. More apprehensive than be-
fore he called to Chief of Police
Lauterbach, feeding his hens near
by, and the two climbed rise of
ground and there watched the digni-
fed President of the State Optome-
try Board hurriedly press through
brush and start on a gallop across
the fields toward Peavey park. As
sured now of some calamity, the re-
porter made a wild dash to his home
phone and called up the Hitchcock
residence, hardly breathing in his
alarm and excitement. The placid
voice of Miss Hitchcock soon inform
ed him that H. M. was late to camp
breakfast and was making up time
on the way over. The reporter then
finished dressing.
