CATCH RAC00N
AT SP0TSW00D
Nelson Jolly Has Icy Swim
Getting 1t.
Special to the EVENING NEWS.

Spotswood, Dec. 11:-Nelson E.
Jolly, a local nimrod and follower Of
Izaak Walton, caught a thirteen
pound acoon on Monday afternoon,
but had to swim the Manalapan
creek, a branch of the South river, to
turn the trick. 1t was the biggest
and most perfectly striped racoon
caught hereabouts in several years.
Jolly says he eve had such an excit-
ing time; he was out canoeing for
muskrats when he spied the coon
dropping into a hole in the trunk of
a fallen tree. The hunter gave chase
with his partner, Bert Clark, another
crack huntsman, as first assistant.
The racoon was chased Il of his
home by Jolly, and Immediately dove
overheard to cross to the other side
and safety.
Not to be outdone by such maneu-
vers, Jolly plunged into the icy
stream for his valuable prize. He
caught the coon by the hind legs
after a few strokes, and managed to
retain his hold, despite his fast freez-
ing fingers, until Clark padded
alongside the struggling pair and hit
the racoon over the head with a
