Capt. John Meares.
BY VIM. ID. s.

He was a large rosy cheek old gen
tleman, that married Poole and
lived in the fork of Reedy river and
Peachland Greek. His house was on
the top of a high red hill, that over
looked the fiat lands below, which
lands were cultivated in corn. He was
no cotton planter His looks showed
that he believed in plenty of grain
and something good to eat. He wore
the old time cut blue home made
pants, with a front flap. fastened up
by two buttons on the right and left
When unbuttoned this flap would fail
square down In front. He was a great
fisherman and hunter. His regular
companion was a long single barrel
shot gun, which the boys called the
red polk stock. He would narrate to
us some wonderful long shots that he
made ct ducks and hawks with this
gun. i reckon there never was
gun in these parts that carried shot
farther and shot truer than old polk.
My father had great respect for
Capt. Meares. When we had a we'd
ding or any social gathering at our
house the Meares family were sure Of
an invitation
