Historic hearse featured in exhibit

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE Ñ The Adirondack Museum will soon be featuring Winter Warmup Ñ an array of programs, exhibits and activities from Feb. 14 through Feb. 23 designed to lift spirits midway through winter.

In a collection at the museum is a handcrafted antique hearse from Warrensburg, which features both snow skis and wheels

which were changed to meet prevailing weather conditions, according to Jennifer Bine, Director of Interpretation for the museum.

The ornate, horse-drawn hearse was owned and used by Warrensburg mortician Joseph Woodward from 1885 to 1914, and by Barry Woodward, also a mortician in Warrensburg, from 1914 through 1947.

The hearse was then passed on to the Orton & McCloskey Funeral Home, which donated it to the Adirondack Museum

in the mid-1950s. The hearse was built in about 1880 by George Brownell of New Bedford, Mass.

The hearse is featured in the exhibit Ò Roads and Rails: Everyday Life in the Age of Horses, which will be open to the public at no charge from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesday Feb. 18 and Wednesday, Feb. 19 during the museumÕ s FrostFest days.

Lake George boat inspection approval hailed

By Thom Randall thom@denpubs.com LAKE GEORGE Ñ With the intent of curbing the spread of aquatic invasive species, the Lake George Park Commission voted unanimously Jan. 28 to implement a mandatory boat inspection and decontamination program for Lake George.

The long-awaited mandates were hailed this week

by local community officials and environmental organization leaders.

The approved regulations call for inspection of boats for invasive species Ñ watercraft are to be cleaned, drained and dry before they are launched into Lake George. If any invasive species are found on the boats, they must be washed at a nearby boatwashing station prior to launch.

The regulations take effect beginning May 15,

when the equipment and personnel are to be in place.

Eight boat washing stations are to be situated at six sites around the lake. The boat inspections and decontamination are to be free of charge.

Lake George Mayor Robert Blais said in a prepared statement hat the vote represented a notable step forward in the protection of the world-famous waterway.

LAKE GEORGE Ñ Curtis Condon of Adirondack Studios stood on the ice of Lake George Saturday, watching various teams haul their homemade outhouses into position for elimination heats in the annual Lake George Winter Carnival outhouse race as hundreds of people cheered intermittently.

Condon, the paint shop foreman for the famed scenery design firm, had two outhouse teams entered Ñ a craft titled Ò Bat GirlÓ craft and another named Ò TNT.Ó Condon has been responsible, Adirondack Studios owner Tom Lloyd explained from the sidelines, for the firm’s 12 years of victories Ñ or nearwins Ñ in the Lake George outhouse races.

Condon has a taste for speed, Lloyd explained. As a hobby, Condon builds competition race cars.

The studioÕ s TNT entry was modified this year to gain a fraction of a second in speed.

Turning Back the Pages

By Jean Hadden

•100 years ago — Feb. 1914• Play it one more time

There has been a dearth of amateur dramatic entertainment this winter in Warrensburgh, but Ò Brac, the Poorhouse Girl,Ó a comedy-drama, will be presented at the Warrensburgh Music Hall on Feb. 20 and 21, 1914 and there is expected to be a large turnout. Miss Mabel Winslow will play Ò Brac.Ò John F. Burt will arrange the scenic features. Following the first performance on Friday night, there will be a dance for which Green and TidmarchÕ s Orchestra will play. Refreshments will be served on stage at the hall.

The play was last presented in Warrensburgh on Feb. 12 and 13, 1889, just 25 years ago at Hockaday’s Hall for the benefit of the Cadet Band. Since that time the band is no more, actor J.H. Mixter has died and Hockaday Hall has been reduced to ashes in a midnight fire. At that performance Miss Maggie Fitzsimons played Ò BracÓ and today she is the wife of attorney Thomas OÕ Connor of Waterford. Tickets are 50 cents for gentlemen and ladies are free. The money will go to the Warrensburgh School graduating class. (Note - How fun it would be if this play could be located and the Warrensburg School could find a copy of this fine old play and present it on stage once again to an appreciative Warrensburg audience. Three times in 125 years! It is indeed time to raise Ò BracÓ once again from her dusty grave.

Mighty blizzard blankets Northeast

A snow storm which in widespread severity rivaled the big blizzard of March 12 and 13, 1888 began at 10 p.m. Feb. 12, 1914 and continued until 4:30 p.m. Feb. 13. Like the great storm of Ô 88 it covered the entire northeastern section of the United States and everywhere traffic of every description was paralyzed.

The snow fall varied from 6 to 36 inches in various locations.

About 22 inches fell on Riverbank. Roads are still impassible in Igerna. Contrary to the usual order there was the heaviest fall in the southern section. In Saratoga Springs for instance 42 inches was reported and Glens Falls got 36 inches, WarrensburghÕ s received 33 inches, in Chester, 19, and in Newcomb, only 6 inches.

Boy who defended mother is acquitted

Alfred E. Dodge of SmithÕ s Basin, who shot and killed his stepfather, Samuel Wiggins, at that place on Oct. 26, 1913, was tried for murder in the second degree at Hudson falls and was acquitted of the charge.

The jury was out four hours. The defense advanced the plea of justifiable homicide in defense of the boy’s mother whom they contended was about to be killed by her husband. (Note: This story was detailed in this column in the Oct. 19 and Nov. 9, 2013 issues of the Adirondack Journal.)

Thurman girl severely burned

Hazel Brown, 7-year-old daughter of Clarence Brown of Athol, was severely burned the morning of Feb. 15, 1914 after she went to the cellar for some potatoes. She was carrying a lighted lantern with a broken chimney. While bending over the potato bin her hair touched the flame of the lantern and took fire and her clothes were ignited. She rushed upstairs screaming loudly and her grandmother threw a rug over her and smothered the flames.

Her back and right hand were severely burned, but her injuries are not expected to prove fatal.

Time to move out

A judgment was entered in the Saratoga County Clerk’s Office in Ballston in favor of Michael P. Reidy of Warrensburgh, who brought an action against his sister Ellen, to recover possession of premises willed in 1892 to him by his father, Martin Reidy.

The sister has continued to reside in the house with her mother, who had a life interest in the property until her death. She died a few months ago and then came Michael ReidyÕ s action to recover possession of the premises, located on Hudson St., South Glens Falls.

Horse causes painful injury

William L. Smith, the genial proprietor of the downtown lunch room in Warrensburgh, is suffering a very painful wound on his right hand. Bill was holding a horse in front of his store on Feb. 9, 1914, when the animal started and in attempting to stop it he slipped on the ice and his hand was caught under the sleigh runner, which passed over it. Nearly all the flesh was torn from two fingers while the whole hand was badly bruised and rendered practically useless for the time being.

Mother O’Connor dies

Mrs. Johanna OÕ Connor, 75, died Feb. 9, 1914 at FriendÕ s Lake, Chester, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. William Murphy. She was born in Ireland. Death was caused by general arterial sclerosis.

The deceased made her home in Warrensburgh with her sons, Michael and Thomas OÕ Connor, proprietors of the Adirondack Hotel, but had been at FriendÕ s Lake since last September, 1913.

She was a woman of fine character. Originally she resided in Schroon Lake for many years. She also has another son, Maurice OÕ Connor, proprietor of the Warren House in Warrensburgh.

Bearers at her funeral were her grandsons, Maurice OÕ Connor Jr., John OÕ Connor and William Murphy Jr. (Note: In last weekÕ s Adirondack Journal, Feb. 1, 2014, the story of the OÕ Connor family at the Adirondack Hotel was told in this column.)

New bank building planned

The directors of the First National Bank of Glens Falls have decided to purchase the Byrne property at the corner of Glen St. and Park Avenue for the site of the magnificent new building which is being planned by the officers of the institution. An option has been secured on the property and it is assured the necessary details toward a purchase will be consummated within the near future. Work on the structure will be started during the summer or fall. Several styles of architecture are being considered. (Note: After the great Glens Falls fires of 1864 and 1884, it took Glens Falls many years to recover. A magnificent fountain stood in the middle of Glen Street near the entrance to Park Avenue, hence the area was known as Ò Fountain Square.Ó This Ò Neptune fountainÓ was removed in 1898 and in later years was sold for scrap. This area, also called Ò The Corners,Ó was than renamed Ò Bank Square,Ó because of the three banks located there.

The First National Bank adjoined the Rockwell Hotel which later burned in 1950, approximately where W.T. Grant Co.Õ s Department Store once stood in later years. GrantÕ s was demolished in 1975 in order to build Hudson Avenue extension.)

Letters to the Editor

Medical marijuana can help patients enduring neurological disorders To the Editor: I appreciate the editorial published in Denton Publications urging the public to examine the facts associated with proposals to legalize marijuana.

It was interesting to read that the first efforts to establish laws against growing hemp Ñ which up until 1883 was the largest crop grown worldwide for its various uses in industry Ñ were pushed by the southern U.S. cotton lobby which wanted to curb competition. Who would have thought Ñ cotton.

This editorial exhibited good research and insight as to who was and is behind such prohibition.

Now, letÕ s talk about legalizing medical uses of marijuana. The next step in the fight against legalization could very well involve the drug manufacturers as you stated in the editorial.

Medical use of marijuana definitely involves people’s health and our compassion as a country.

Marijuana can provide relief from many chronic syndromes, including neurological conditions that have movement-disorder components. Such afflictions include Alzheimer’s disease, ParkinsonÕ s disease, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy and seizure disorders, as well as symptoms endured by patients previously suffering strokes. This extensive list possibly could include more syndromes, which we won’t know until bonafide research is allowed.

Ingesting marijuana can also have a positive effect on people afflicted with autism, as well as those undergoing chemotherapy.

So, one would wonder why drug manufacturers would be against it Ñ but the fact is, they canÕ t patent marijuana, because itÕ s not a manufactured chemical, itÕ s a naturally grown plant Ñ so not only can they not profit from manufacturing it, the medical marijuana would compete with drugs they already have on the market for these disorders, but the marijuana wouldnÕ t have the drugsÕ side effects. Back to those who are suffering with these disorders. IÕ m sure the last thing they would want to do is use medical marijuana to get “high.” Also, the beneficial elements of the plant are primarily the other natural compounds in the plant, not the psychoactive THC component.

But the basic question remains, who are we to deprive them of relief and a sense of well-being?

Reader agrees with editorial: ‘Common Core’ initiative is a disaster

Engagements

To the Editor: I want to thank your editorial board for the article entitled Ò Common Core Ñ The Wrong ChoiceÓ published in the Feb. 1 edition of the Adirondack Journal and other Denton Publications newspapers.

I appreciated the clear and concise explanation of the history of Common Core and how it is being implemented so badly and unfairly by John King and the state Education Department.

I am a retired educator myself. I never had to teach under the appalling Common Core conditions, but my still-active colleagues have kept me apprised of developments. My dander has been up for quite a while!

I support the New York State United Teachers unionÕ s call for the resignation of John King because I cannot believe that any serious educator would agree to such a program that is so disastrous for the kidÕ s genuine education.

It seems that students and teachers are being treated as guinea pigs for some sort of perverse educational experiment being guided by professors and bureaucrats who care only about money and their own advancement. Students and teachers are simply being left in the dust.

Responsible people want the students to have a good education, and toward that purpose I offer the following plan of my own: 1. Eliminate Common Core entirely.

2. Eliminate Regents testing entirely.

3. Treat teachers like the professionals we are and give us control of our own classrooms. We are perfectly able to develop our own curriculums and tests without state interference motivated by money and politics.

4. Fund the schools properly to reduce class sizes.

5. Develop high standards in teacher education so only the best and brightest are able to become teachers.

These five points make perfect sense to me, and whatever problems may be encountered in their implementation pale in comparison to problems created by the stupidity, greed and arrogance of the Common Core programs Ñ and the bureaucrats forcing them down everybodyÕ s throats.

Our fate is in the paws of a groundhog

Every year on Feb. 2 a crowd gathers at Gobblers Knob in Pennsylvania to see if the furry critter known as Punxsutawney Phil will see his shadow leaving us with six more weeks of winter Ñ or not see the shadow, which indicates an early spring.

The crowd was left with disappointment this year as the critter indeed did see a distinct shadow and retreated back to his burrow to finish off his winter hibernation.

I only have a couple questions; who is the groundhog Ò whispererÓ Phil conveys his message to Ñ and did the sun come out in Pennsylvania at exactly 7:20 a.m. Feb. 2?

High utility bills despite some relief

Many Thurman residents have phoned me this week reporting their extremely high energy bills Ð nearly double or triple in some cases the total of prior years. The situation could be a lot worse, according to a statement issued recently by utility provider National Grid.

The press release says Ò Costs for the electricity supply for upstate New York have increased substantially in the past few months due to colder-than-normal weather conditions and a dramatic rise in the cost of natural gas that fuels many electricity generating stations. These increases, coupled with much higher than typical usage, prompted the company to take action to help stabilize energy costs for its customers.Ó The state Public Service Commission, which regulates and sets delivery rates, has authorized National Grid to to provide its customers with a $32 million temporary credit to upstate New Yorkers to help soften the blow of this increase. Without this relief, utility bills could have jumped 20 to 30 percent higher for the month of February, National Grid reported.

If you are having a difficult time paying for heat, the Home Energy Assistance Program offered through Warren County Department of Social Services, also known as HEAP, is still taking applications for assistance.

HEAP is distributed on a first-come first-served basis, so if you are in need of assistance, call their office at 761-6300 as soon as possible. Also, please remember to plug in your heat tape, install faucet insulation, or keep those faucets dripping to prevent costly broken water lines.

Nettle Meadow Farm featured on new NYC webzine

By Thom Randall

thom@denpubs.com THURMAN Ñ Nettle Meadow Farm, nationally renowned for its artisan cheeses, recently received some new media attention.

New York States of Mind, a new web-based digital magazine, has published an extensive article on Nettle Meadow.

The article, the first ever presented by the Manhattan-based magazine, focused on the history of Nettle Meadow Farm, the accomplishments of its owners Sheila Flanagan and Lorraine Lambiase, and their humane and ecologically sensitive practices.

The article also describes their ongoing project to restore their historic barn, and reveals that Flanagan and Lambiase are talking about hosting concerts and stage productions there.

The article, which can be seen at: http://bit. ly/1eKBngv, invites people to drive up to Thurman and visit the farm and its environs.

The webzineÕ s Editor-in-Chief said Tuesday she was pleased to discover Nettle Meadow and present it to the webzineÕ s Internet audience. Ò At NewYorkStatesOfMind.com, we seek to be the storytellers of the state Ñ We celebrate New YorkersÕ parallel experiences and draw connections in the unlikeliest of places,Ó Christine Murphy said. Ò We were thrilled to feature Nettle Meadow Farm Ñ and Lorraine Lambiase and Sheila FlanaganÕ s efforts to restore their ravaged barn. We are excited to see what they continue to do to breathe new life into the Adirondack region.Ó

The top four wrestlers in each weight class go on to the state qualifier the following weekend at the Glens Falls Civic Center.

Warrensburg Wrestling Coach Mark Trapasso said that Warrensburg High School has been chosen often in recent years to host the Class D Section II competition primarily because volunteers including parents, assistant coaches and students collaborate to make the tournament run smoothly. Plus, Trapasso added that Warrensburg offers the best gymnasium in the region for the sport. Ò We have the ability to lay out three full-size wrestling mats while opening up all the bleachers,Ó he said. Ó Our gym is better

for the fans and safer for the wrestlers.Ó He added that he hopes a large number of local wrestling fans extend a warm welcome to the hundreds of spectators expected from afar.

All the Section II regional wrestling meets are scheduled for Feb. 8. The Class C tournament, which features the Lake George/ Hadley-Luzerne War-Eagles, is to be held at Granville. The Class A meet is at Shaker High, the Class B competition is set for Burnt Hills, and the class CC is to be held at Glens Falls High School.

Ò With this historic vote, the Commission has upheld its protection mandate in the face of the gathering invasives threat,Ó he said. Blais serves as the chairman of the S.A.V.E. Lake George Partnership.

S.A.V.E. Lake George is a coalition of public and private officials, conservation group leaders, scientists and entrepreneurs around Lake George who have committed to paying half the boat inspection programÕ s cost over the next two years.

S.A.V.E. member Eric Siy, Executive Director of the Fund for Lake George, said the decision of the Park Commission was historic. Ò Nothing will deliver better returns for our economy, environment, and communities than shared investment in the future health of Lake George,Ó he said.

Blais and Lake George Town Supervisor Dennis Dickinson as well as Bolton Town Supervisor Ron Conover have for years advocated Ñ alongside area environmentalists Ñ for mandated boat inspection and decontamination.

Dickinson has warned that the inspections need to be conducted around-the-clock to maximize the programÕ s effectiveness.

The S.A.V.E. group has called for Ò night monitorsÓ to perform this role, and Blais said the groupÕ s members will be working

with the park commission to assure such comprehensive coverage.

Conover noted that Lake George was the first major lake in the eastern U.S. to have such comprehensive protection program in place. Ò There is no question that Lake George is leading the way in demonstrating what it will take to save our precious waters from aquatic invasives,Ó he said hailing the Park Commission members for their foresight.

Warren County leaders have launched a program to curb the spread of invasive species through all the countyÕ s waterways.

Warned for years by local environmentalists of how many lakes across the U.S. have become choked with pernicious plants, mollusks and other creatures, a majority of the town supervisors have called for a county-wide mandatory inspection and decontamination program.

Although state officials first expressed opposition to the mandated program, their positions have changed.

Pending is a proposed new regulation by the State Department of Environmental Conservation to prohibit launching of boats at any state launch facility that is not clean and drained to prevent invasives from spreading. The agency is now seeking public opinion on the proposal. The public comment period • M Y P U B L I C N O T I C E S • on the statewide regulation is MY PUBLIC NOTICES scheduled to end Feb. 24.

New in the celebrated race this year was an entry from northern Warren County. It was the brainchild of Amy Sabattis of North River, who is an employee of Warren County Cornell Cooperative Extension in Warrensburg.

She discovered a Fiberglass outhouse shell offered for free on Craigslist, hauled it home, decorated it in camouflage colors, and named it Ò Dump DynastyÓ as a take-off on the popular A&E cable-television reality show. Her team was dressed in huntersÕ camouflage and sported long beards, both real and fake.

“I was surfing Craigslist, saw this outhouse, and I thought Ô What the heck, why not,Õ Ó she said. SabattisÕ brother Steven organized the team: Ike Allen of Warrensburg, Will Davis of North River and Brian Hammond of Chester, Sabattis explained.

Pushing their rig were Cassisus Allen, Robbie Ford and Dylan Stein, all teenagers from Lake George.

A new entry in the outhouse race for 2014 was a team from the Lake George Fire Department. The firefighters pushed a bulky outhouse, fashioned to resemble a giant red fire hydrant down the ice. Paul Sullivan, Mike Berry, Matt Oswald, Joe Oswald and Alan Moon had a considerable disadvantage, pushing their heavy creation down the ice while wearing full turnout gear.

Also competing was an outhouse from King NeptuneÕ s tavern of Lake George. After a test run of the new entry, Neptune employee Devin OÕ Brien, noted that their outhouse was built so heavy a rope broke sending one of the racers tumbling. His team included Shawn Gorman of Lake George, Blake Saunders and Matt Parsons. Ò WeÕ ll lighten this up for next year,Ó OÕ Brien said after their team lost two qualifier races.

After a half-dozen or so runs, the athleticism of the Adirondack Studios TNT team and their savvy outhouse-engineering work earned them the 2014 championship.

The Sans Souci team came in second. Team coordinators and restaurant proprietors Linda Goodman said earlier they enjoyed competing although they always came in third or fourth over the last eight years. Sans SouciÕ s involvement in the annual race stretches back 15 years earlier, under the prior owners of the restaurant, Parker said. Ò This is a fun community thing,Ó he said.

Retiring NWCS chief honored by students, peers

By Poul Carstensen

denpubs@denpubs.com CHESTERTOWN Ñ Joe MurphyÕ s last day as North WarrenÕ s superintendent of schools Friday Jan. 31 was memorable for all as the entire school sent him off with a surprise assembly. Students, faculty, and family members showered him with applause, music and notes of thanks.

Led onto the stage by the school mascot, Murphy was greeted by family members who came for the celebration. The school band then honored MurphyÕ s military service by playing the Marine hymn. Murphy also was honored in song by the elementary choir as they sang Ò HomeÓ by Phillip Phillips and the high school select choir that sang Frank SinatraÕ s Ò My Way.Ó North Warren Principal Theresa Andrew presented Murphy with a gift from the faculty and staff Ñ a framed collage of photographs depicting the former Pottersville, Chestertown, and Horicon schools and a larger one of the present K-12 consolidated school. Staff members wrote their personal messages on the mat boards surrounding the photos.

Student body president Ian Underwood presented a gift to the retiring superintendent. Underwood spoke of how Murphy will be missed

Antique Hearse From page 1

Center will be open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily, featuring free admission to their Celebration of Community History exhibit. This display features historical objects and stories from around the Adirondacks, including 1700s canister rounds from Fort Ticonderoga, items from Arto MonacoÕ s Land of Make Believe in Upper Jay NY, and artifacts that lend glimpses into life, work and recreation in the Adirondacks many years ago.

Throughout the Winter Warmup, year-round Adirondack Park residents can also purchase museum memberships at half-price, starting at $20. Such memberships offer a long list of benefits.

FrostFest days include outdoor fun, and participatory programs for families along with selected free exhibits. These two days feature free indoor childrenÕ s activities like making snowflakes from birch bark, creating plaster casts of animal tracks, art workshops, crafting bird feeders from pine cones, and more.

The Roads and Rails exhibit, with free entry during FrostFest, features

in the school district.

With his voice exhibiting emotion, Murphy expressed his heartfelt appreciation for the event, noting he had no idea the event had been planned.

Murphy told the assembled school community of his enjoyment of teaching, how he loved his job and felt a deep bond with all the students, staff and teachers he has worked with for decades.

Murphy has been in employed in the field of education for over 50 years, many of those as a teacher, principal and superintendent for North Warren School District.

Murphy, now 75, offered his thoughts Monday about the surprise assembly held in his honor. Ò It was fantastic Ñ so absolutely humbling and overwhelming,Ó he said. Ò It was such a good way to sum up my 50 years in education.

IÕ ve truly enjoyed working with other educators and the children of North Warren.Ó Murphy said that in retirement, he was going to stay involved in education by developing curriculum Ñ drafting fairy tale units to be taught in the primary grades. Ò I love the little guys Ñ they are such powerful thinkers,Ó he said.

(Adirondack Journal Editor Thom Randall contributed to this report.)

not only the Warrensburg snow hearse but other horse-drawn equipment used in the Adirondacks including a snow roller, plows, sleighs, and a U.S. Mail sled. Also open at no charge during Frost Fest days is an extensive exhibit on Adirondack logging and another depicting outdoor recreation in bygone years. The latter includes the cabin where Adirondack hermit Noah John Rondeau lived.

Weather permitting, free outdoor Ò FrostFestÓ activities include snowshoeing on museum grounds, snowsculpting and painting and various games.

Winter Warmup also includes two programs from the museumÕ s Ò Cabin Fever SundaysÓ series. Admission is free for museum members, students, and children; $5 for non-members.

On Sunday, Feb. 16 at 1:30 p.m., historian John Warren, editor of Adirondack Almanack, will present a program on Adirondack snowmobile history. On Sunday Feb. 23 at 1:30 p.m., ornithologist Joan Collins will present a program on regional winter birds at the Tannery Pond Community Center, 228 Main St. in North Creek.

North Warren Superintendent Joe Murphy accepts a gift of appreciation from a group of Kindergartners during an assembly held Friday to honor Murphy on his retirement — and thank him for his decades of service to students, teachers and staff.

A hearse constructed in about 1880 and used in Warrensburgh during the late 1800s and early 1900s, is featured in the Adirondack Museum’s Roads & Rails exhibit. The public can see this and several other historic exhibits at no charge during the museum’s FrostFest event, set for Feb. 18 and 19. FrostFest includes a variety of family oriented activities. The historic hearse from Warrensburg features both snow runners and wheels so it could be used year-round. The hearse was donated to the museum in the mid-1950s

by Orton & McCloskey Funeral Home of Warrensburg.

a Friend of Mine!

T

he weather is starting to break and I will be out with the dogs, bird hunting soon.

Grouse season ends the end of February so I have some time left. To me, walking through the aspen and apple tree thickets and maybe even flushing a bird with my dogs, is comparable to fishing during an Ephemerella hatch of mayflies; a glorious day to be alive.

By Rich Redman For Christmas, my brother sent me a couple of great books to read while the minus 20 degree weather keeps me in the house. One was Ò Grouse CoverÓ , a complete set of newsletters written by Mr. George King, the other: Ò A Passion for GrouseÓ , which is a collection of articles, written of course, about the King of Birds; the Ruffed Grouse.

Mr. KingÕ s newsletter Ò Grouse CoverÓ started in October 1969. His one page, double sided newsletter was written solely by George King for grouse hunters. In his newsletters he covered season dates and bag limits by states, magazine articles, grouse photos and prints that were available, books about the bird, hunting dogs and grouse habitat management. Mr. King penned the newsletter, printed, packed letters and mailed them out with his family, Linda, Kathy and his Grouse widow, Penny.

Much of the costs for this feathered publication he bore out of his own pockets when he first got started. His goal was to educate, inform and build camaraderie of fellow grouse hunters. As his mailings grew, he slowly ventured into keeping a subscriber list. In 1971 his subscribers totaled more than 3000, covering numerous states. A yearsÕ worth of Ò Grouse CoverÓ lore and tales, sold for a whopping $2.00.

George KingÕ s passion for this bird carried over into starting a fraternity or society of Ruffed Grouse hunters, known as the Ancient and Honorable Order of Brush Worn Partridge Hunters, A.H.O.B.W.P.H. A parchment certificate with the A.H.O.B.W.P.H. code and the memberÕ s name was sent to every raspberry patch and thorn bush co-conspirator of the grouse cover world. These guys were known locally as the Ò Brush WornsÓ .

A blue background patch with white lettering and a gold colored Ruffed Grouse patch was later designed and sent to members. Brush Worn members included all backgrounds in life, blue collar steel mill workers in PA, doctors and professional writers, including Burton Spiller, who wrote the book Grouse Feathers. Frank Woolner and H.G, Ò TapÓ Tapply who was the editor of Field and Stream magazine were also members and fellow hunting buddies.

In the book: Ò A Passion for GrouseÓ , Mr. George King states, Ò Now that my grouse hunting days are over, I sometimes reflect on how wonderful it was that I discovered grouse hunting in the first place. And I feel grateful that the rich traditions have been kept alive by getting passed from one generation of hunters to the next. Once in a while, when I was hunting in a beautiful covert, I could almost feel a kinship with the weathered men of long ago who hunted places just like this. Now I am one of those old men. I like thinking that somewhere out there, some younger hunter might feel that same connection with me and with all the old timers from the other side of the hillÓ .

I recently wrote to George to let him know how much I appreciated his book, his writings and his love and passion for the Ruffed Grouse and passing down tradition.

A few weeks later, forgetting I even sent the letter, I received an e-mail from Peggy King.

A connection was made with this man through his writings and I find myself grieving for a friend I never met or knew personally. Only recently, have I discovered this man and his passion for grouse. IÕ ll always remember these words he wrote. His advice is to take some time andÓ Soak up some WisdomÓ . Take time to sit by that tree and enjoy the moment in the woods with your dog and friends. Getting a grouse is not the only reason to hunt! I agree!

I have developed a kinship for him, and all those other old timers on the other side of the hill.

The world of Ruffed Grouse, Ruffy or (Bonasa umbellus), lost a true friend this past September. Mr. George King of Greensburg Pennsylvania passed away due to a long illness.

Mrs. King let me know that George was cremated. His ashes will be buried alongside the grave of his favorite dog, Ò BoyÓ , an English Setter. They will be layed to rest under a 100 year old oak tree.

The tradition of hunting, a hunterÕ s world, or a trout and a fly fisherman’s world is something we all need to teach the next generation. Mr. George King has set the bar for all of us.

We all need to carry on the tradition and pay it forward. I will cherish my Order of Brush Worn Partridge HunterÕ s patch and some day it will be handed down to a deserving young Grouse Hunter. Thank you, Peggy.

On Tuesday, Feb. 11, Trout Unlimited we will be giving a presentation on rod building at 7 p.m. at Gander Mountain.

Everything from new tangled graphite to antique bamboo.
