Mr. Mcfann, thanks for the information on John. Daddys cathunting freind here at Perry has bought two pups by him and as his reputation is so good I wondered how he is bred. Thanks again!

Mr. Modlin, and Mr. Mcfann hope to get Daddy up through yalls country later this spring as we are to go to Maryland to look at some Hounds. Always glad to see good hounds.

Mr. Modlin do you know Ed Corker. Mr. Corker used to have Hounds bred the way ours are, but has gone different directions as his sport has evolved.

Poon and Lump, We finally got a break in the weather yesterday after 4 days of low humidity and East winds.

We had hunted morning and night Sat., Sun., and Mon. when all we could do is strike and cold trail. One Cat we hit as he evidently was starting to feed and trailed him over 3 1/2 miles till he came out and hit a sandy road and that was it.

Yesterday we started at 7am and rigged and road hunted till about 4pm when we took a hour nap. While napping the wind changed to the Southwest. We started back to rigging and struck within 30min. Rita and Ruby trailed him about 30min. jumped and we had a H##%& of a 1hr 5min Cat race and caught him on the ground, a 27lb tomcat.

We loaded the Hounds and put the Rig dogs up and started out of the Club and struck again within a mile. That one we trailed for 1hr and jumped, ran him 20min and he went up.

Lump, Snow did not tree but she sure can trail and got several pick ups. We had a freind visiting from Louisiana who said how much he wanted Snow, so she is headed further west.

Sure is nice to see Cathunters using this forum to keep in touch!

Poon and Lump I will call when I get back from NM Lion Hunting and look forward to seeing you all in March!

Good Running to All.

C. John Clay
