First State Bank OF Lennon.
When the correspondent was In

the street by the Herald editor who
extended such hearty handshaks
accompanied by best wishes for a

On Friday of last week the chal-
lenged hunt came Off An unusually
large crowd OF hunters presented
themselves in the morning ready tor
the days sport. With but two excep.

hunt we're present and the new nan
were quickly placed In the ranks OF
the former lines Then with an en-.
thusiastic yell the start was made,
each huntsman heading for the
gamiest nooks. The weather was
ideal, not cold. rather mild, and
many we're the remarks as to the
pleasant weather-in fact nearly all
the snow which fell on the oath, saw
its disappearance that day. In the
evening, when the sports returned
tired and hungry. IL was found that
Captain Lee 3 braves hsd bagged the
game so successfully that they had
mole than retained the honours as
winners. We have reason to believe
that another hunt will soon take
place. Spring Butte township will
probably challenge Dakota township.
also the neighbours on the south Of
the Cedar river may challenge the
north side. Just which will he pulled
off first depends much On how fast
sentiment and plans develop.
