HOME OF CHIEF KILLBUCK 

 two members in the club and the big knob or 

 island is known by that name to this day. Of 

 the eight charter members of the old Columbian 

 Hunting Club all have crossed over the divide 

 but three, Siglar, Gidley and Fry, The island 

 has long since been deserted as the swamp fires 

 swept over the island some twenty years ago 

 and destroyed the clubhouse, yet now and then 

 a camp was made on the island during the 

 duck shooting season, as shown in the cut. The 

 island 6 to 2 is pretty much like Goldsmith's 

 deserted village, forlorn and desolate, yet there 

 are many happy memories that cluster around 

 this little island camp of hunting days in the 

 years gone by.
