W. B. Moore and I. D. Best, of your city, came out to "these diggins" last Thursday morning on a hunting trip. They were the pleasant guests of Mr. E. Lawrence Rankin. Please don't question them concerning their game bags or who they bought those rabbits from. It's not nice and sometimes is very embarrassing. Dr. Best had to "throw up the sponge" about 10 o'clock. He is not built for these hill hunting stunts but for goodness sake don't tell him I told you or he will lick me to a "frazzle" sure. The man who goes hunting with Dr. Moore and Lawrence Rankin will always remember that he's been in a walking match. We've been there and once only.
