I am sorry that ,you did not see itr. Cha/nbers because you might 
have been able to give him im'ormation which would lead to bettor game 
regulations. 
Ray must feel that he is having all hinds of experience, from 
being marooned by the wind to hearing steam whistles in the -srong direc- 
tion. 
I am sorry to hear that the buffalo gnats are so troublesome 
on the flats. V/hen in abundance, thoy are many times worse than the 
same numbor of mosquitoes. 
V/ith hind royards, I am. 
Very truly yours.
