The gators were out this weekend. It gets up to 55 or so and they come out.

Yes, John. I have that one and it is good. He is a PGCA member and spoke at the annual meeting a few years ago

I spoke at length with Mr. Frierson at that meeting and he inscribed my book as well.

Back in 2010, I was looking at a nice 30" 16ga. DHE, in a shop down in SC. The owner of the shop told me he would give my name to the gun's owner and have him call me.
The morning I was driving up the parking garage ramp to go into the hospital for an operation, my cellphone rang, and it was Doc Frierson. He told me that he had just finished doing a family genealogy and he had Spencer relatives who had moved from Connecticut to South Carolina prior to the Civil War. Not surprisingly, I knew nothing of them, but John informed me they fought for the South, and that he and I were related. He sent me a copy of his book which I digested during my recovery. We have since written back and forth on numerous occasions, and shared our maple syrup and 'shine (which I might point out is 'killer' good 120 proof) He's an accomplished cabinet maker and botanist. Long story short, I have his DHE 16. |

What about William H. Claflin's Partridge Rambles and Partridge Adventures? I don't have either, and I understand they're hard to find and harder to afford if you do find them. There's a reprint available here:
