He could narrate volumes of interesting reading matter relative to his sea faring life

This is a jolly club, and all the members but one, are staunch Mckinley, men and they claim that this 'lone silverite” with them was the only one to be found in Indianapolis, consequently they brought him along to see if they finally could not persuade him to enter the McKinley band wagon. The boys put in their time fishing, and hunting ducks, and have already killed several beauties.

Dr. Mueller, the eminent surgeon of the club, is prepared for all immergencies, bringing with him a full line of instruments and medicines, not forgetting his “pill bag.”

The club has its own boat, with C. C. Perry as second engineer, but the position was annulled owing to incompetency, he having set the craft on fire the first day he had it in charge, greatly to the consternation of Capt. Pegg, who expected to finally meet a watery grave. This is the third year of the club’s existence, and it is rapidly increasing in membership, and contemplates erecting a magnificent club house in the near future.

One of the crowd. Frank Ittenbach, left for home Monday, owing to urgent business, taking with him 20 pounds of fine fish and several ducks.
