lodge member who went on the hunt
was given a ticket on the % special
rifle put up by the lodge and some
time during the evening the rifle was
given to the man who held the lucky
number. This was to stimulate fun and
/ add little pep to the crowd. John

of numbers of rabbits brought in,
having 80 to his credit, while Guy
