I have no way of knowing for sure, but assume he did. From what I understand, he was a hard core bird hunter. He died in 1929. I do have a picture of him sitting in front of the General store on a Winchester ammo box, with 2 bird dogs hold what appears to be a Model 12 in Mound City, SD.

Funny thing was I went there in 1995 and the storefront looked exactly the same! I wish I had recreated the scene with my 2 labs! A few seasons later some redecorated and ruined it.
