FISHING PARTY RETURNS
BUT BIG ONE GOT AWAY
Falls County Party Enjoys Delightful
Outing on Colorado River
H. O. Barganier of Marlin brings back not so many fish but a true fish story
after a delightful outing on the Colorado river. While running lines, one
night--but let Mr. Bargainer tell it.
"We got several smaller fish and then there
a great, big one--indicating its length with a sweep of his right hand from the
tips of the fingers of his left hand to slightly above the elbow--but just
before we reached, it got away!"
Other members of the party were Alonzo
Barganier and son, James Barganier, of Lott; Prof. Gillespie of Sherman, Joe
Turner and Hillary Barganier of Marlin.
Anyhow, they got plenty of fish for eating
purposes and that was what they went for.
