I saw Bob Gray, Hubert Lacy and Neal Gray early Wednesday morning, they looked like they had been through the rough country about all night After a little questioning I’ll quote Bob ‘ Boy we caught two big'uns last night.” I ask “what!’. He said, “coons, one 30 pounder, and the other one was a big one." I told him that a 30 lb. coon would be a big coon, that I believed that he is living up to his name run¬ ning around telling tales like this. He couldn’t get Neal or Hubert to verify this tale, so he said, “well we caught one about 12 lbs and let the 30 pounder get away.” Bob’? coon dog is not for sale. 1 UK DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5, 1953 CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE TO OPEN NOVEMBER l(i Mrs. W.
