met at the residence of August Bloom.
From there the party proceeded to the
outfall canal in a wagon and the trip
began in the gasoline boat Red Wing,
together with the barge Queen OF the
Prairies in tow. The trip out the canal
and down the bayou was very pleasant
and the boats finally landed at Dr.
Vests camp at Peach Orchard. Fish
ing at once began. Pat Prados picked
one of the largest head of cabbages in
that section of the country. Refresh
ments were served in abundance and
fishing was enjoyed by everyone in the
crowd. The haul was composed of
several baskets of crabs and many doz-
ems of perch.
