TOO MANY STRINGS TO
THE FREE HAY DEAL

Word got around that 60 tons
of hay had been allotted to supply
,ster needs in Dare. County.
- people who had no disaster
Is, and few cattle had hopes
getting some of this free hay.
The fact is, the hay is not so free
after all, and it is awarded under
regulation SO strict, that it is
doubtful if anyone in Dare County
can get any of it.
r. F. Smith, county Farm agent
says that this hay is only put out
for the benefit of such breeding
stock as the farmer may own. 1t
isn't donated at all, the recipient
saves only about half the freight
costs. First of all, disaster COM
mittee determines if the farmer is
poor enough to be entitled to it.
If he is found eligible, he is given
an application, which he will take
to q hay dealer. He still has to buy
his hay at fair prices. The hay
dealer can get a refund of half
the freight charges or ten dollars
per ton, whichever is smaller.

SCHOOL BOARD TO
SELL VALUABLE
PROPERTY JAN. {

On January 9th there will be
sold at the courthouse door in Dare
County valuable property which
should bring many thousands of

tive communities, consists of the

old Buxton high school at Cape
Hatteras and the site and graded
school building at Avon.
The sale will be held at II
o'clock noon and ten per cent of the
price must be paid at the time of
sale. Terms are cash, but the usual
rules apply in selling property in
this manner.
The buildings are being abandon
ed now that all the pupils former
ly served by them are accommo-
dated at the new Cape Hatteras
High School.
The Hatteras school building is
not being offered for sale at this
time.

MASTER OF VALENTINE HUNT
GIVING HOUNDS TRYOUT

Mays Head.-The Mays Head
Valentine Season Fox Hunt is still
two months away, but already pre-
liminaries to this event which had
attracted national attention in re-
cent years are being given. Hon
Ray Watkins, master of the hunt
was here this week giving his pack
of hounds a tryout in the Big Col
ington Island Mays Head Woods
region.
On Thursday at Big Colington
the hounds, many of them hunting
the Dare Coast terrain for the first
time, accounted for two foxes
"And there are plenty more ovel
there which should assure gooc
hunting for the Valentine Season,
said Watkins.
There are six persons in the
Watkins party and they are stay
ing in beachside cottage here
Their dogs are being quartered al
the Carolinian Hotels kennels
which have the unusual name OF
"Houndtel," for the Valentine Sea-
son packs.

A PIONEER ISLAND LODGE
The Story OF the Beacon Island Hunting Lodge told by Thurs
ton GaskI Of Ocracoke to Alice K. Rond+haer

One of the most popular old
time hunting lodges, which brought
many sportsmen to Ocracoke in the
good old days, was Capt. Bill Gas
kills clubhouse over on Beacon
Island. Hunters came year after
year from way up North and way
down South to hunt with Capt. Bill.
Beacon Island is about three
miles from Ocracoke and about a
mile and half from Portsmouth,
in Pamlico Sound. Casey's Island
near Portsmouth was the mailboat
stop for Capt. Bills hunters if they
came via Beaufort. He met them
there and took them over to Beacon
Island in his own boat. Sometimes
he went over to Oriental to pick
up hunters. Northerners made the
trip down by Atlantic Coastline
R.R. and the old Mullet line.
Capt. Thurston Gaskill, son of
Capt. Bill, was mere youngster
when his dad and Homer Howard
built the first lodge on Beacon Is
land. Actually it was a prefabri-
Gated house, the first ever seen
in this section and was brought up
in sections on the mailboat which
ran between Beaufort and Ocra-
The coastland times. [volume] (Mnateo [i.e. Manteo], N.C.) 1947-1959, 1955-12-16

coke. Mrs. Murray Tolson of Ocra-
coke remarked the other day when
we were talking about hunting
lodges, that she was on the boat
the day they brought it up from
Beaufort, and watched them unload
the sections into smaller boats to
take to Beacon Island. This first
lodge had a big fireplace which
was the heart of the large club
room. John Broom Gaskins of
Ocracoke, who guided for Capt. Bill
recalls that it was built across one
corner of the room with "sort of
spiral brick chimney that just sort
of curved around and and went out
the top of the room" Other end
of the room was lined with hunks.
About ten hunters could be acco-
modated at a time. There was a
kitchen, almost as important as
the clubroom, and a separate room
where the guides slept.
Young Thurston mostly just sat
around and listened to the hunters
