The biggest pike captured, and which weighed thirty pounds, history accords to Frank Posegate an attache of the "Star" print- ing office. It was sold to Uncle Charley Good for forty cents. The next largest was a pick- erel captured by B. F. Allen, and, while a little longer than Posegate's pike, it did not pull down the scales to within a pound of the cham- pion pike. Among the names of the fisher- men mentioned in the catalogue were Mary Hayes, the Campbell brothers, Tom McMullen, Billy Moore,... Col. Thomas Baker, H. M. Home, Jack Shoemaker and others living then in Des Moines and Raccoon Rows.
Bv Tacitus Hussky lOi Then there were hunters who made occa- sional trips to the wilds of Polk County during the hunting season, bringing home wild game of all kinds. When a surplus of game was killed, it was sold at low prices to settlers and the money spent in fresh supplies and ammu- nition; for it must be remembered that with our primitive dealers, in case of bad roads or low rivers, even powder, lead and percussion caps grew scarce.
