-----
Exciting 'Possum Hunt.
-----

       Wednesday night when Miss Luna had spread her magnificent smile out over the universe, four well known 'possum hunters' "hit the road" for the recesses of Little Sandy bottom, east of Marlin, with a determination to land the game or--say nothing about the trip.
       The party was headed by the veteran 'possum hunter, Uncle Kraus Sewall (,) Judge Boyles, M. J. Poole and Jake Gordon completed the crowd.  Their luck was with them and before the moon had reached its zenith they had bagged four very fine ones.
