I haven't finished it yet, but I when I die I want to come back as Mills Morrison.
And dang it Mills, you need to consider writing a book about your hunting experiences. I was downright feeling the temptation to dust off one of my Rutledge books reading your article about Davant.

Davant accounted for about 10 years of my quail hunting life. It was good while it lasted. Rutledge Moore was one of the great Lowcountry characters who are fewer and fewer unfortunately, as the years go on

Got mine today. I often wondered who would keep up the history of the south, quail hunting, pigeon shooting, competitive shooters of the early days, the DuPonts, etc. John Davis and Mills Morrison may be our last hope. Thanks for the great stories, Mills. I had some great times at Forest City. I may go back if Mills and his family will come to visit. So many thanks to Dean.

Thanks Bill.
Forest City is so close to our house and we are there so much it might as well be an extension of our house There is a great story about Mr Dupont sending an ex wife a crate of mildly anesthetized alligators instead of antique furniture from her divorce settlement. Not sure if the family is sensitive about it though so left it out |

I have one of E.E. DuPont's shooting trophies, probably not your friend. I'll post the date.
