Mrs. James j. hampton. Of Wash.
ington, D. c., summering at the Red
Oaks Lodge, captured a large black
bass in Hersum's Cove Thursday
morning, which is almost universally
regarded as the biggest bass caught
in these lakes for several years. The
fish measured 10 inches from head to
tail and was thick and stocky, weigh
ing pounds when Mrs Hampton
landed the fish herself after playing
him about ten minutes. His mouth
was torn in several places, showing
that he had been hooked several times
before in his long career. This Is for
tunate as it furnishes an alibi to sub.
stantiate the last report Of the Bel
grade angler-the story about the one
that got away.
The baseball game originally seized.

Camp Abena and the girls of Camp
Taconnet, has been postponed until
