I am sorry you did not give some description of the man, for 1 think 1 met him some years ago in the Peace river swamp, near Wauchula, and came near having a fight with him, but found, on better acquaintance, that he is harmless. At the time I met the man, 1 was wvalking through the swamp with 12y trusty rifle, trying to find some squirrels, Suddenly | heard some oRe shoot a short distance ahead of me, so I walked on up to him to see what he was shooting at. On near- ing him, bang went his gun again I discovered that he was shooting through the naked limbs of a dead live oak. 1 looked the tree careful- 1y over and could see nothing worth shooting at. Baung went his gun. 1 asked him what he was shooting at and he said ""Don’t you see that coon lp that tree?” 1 said: “'No, 1 don't ee anything.” *I do,” said he, and ln. ng went the gun. [ thought the man must be crazy, so | made a close inspection of his face. His hair was hanging down over his eyes, and 1 noticed a louse crawling on one of the hairs, so he mistook ft for a coon up a tree. | stepped up close and brushed the louse away, and his supposed coon was gone. Then 1 had to beg and plead with him to keep off a fight, for he want- ed to lick me for letting his coon get away, WILLEY.

Hane, we express our sorrow at his departure i the following resolutions: Comrade Hane had lived in Flor- ida for many years past, and was known and respected by many, and was always found ready and willing to aid those in need, and offer com- fert to those in sorrow. He will be missed by those with whom he as- sociated in lite. Therefore, be it “Resolved, First, that we deplore the death of Comrade Hane for we Know that his place in life may no be filled by another, but we know that he has gone to join the major ity of our old comrades on the shore of eternity Second, that we extend our sym- pathy to the widow and family in this, their hour of distress and sor- row, and fee] sure that the Heavenly Father will comfort them in their bereavement with the glad hope of mecting him in that land of love and light that the Lord has prepared for his obedient children. Third, that the community has lost a good citizen and his friends a valued member of society, Fourth, that these resolutions be recorded on a page of our record book as a perpetual reminder of his life among us and that a copy of the same be sent to the widow €.
