Marion and Delmas Richmond
and their guest, Walter .Tones, who
were here from the University of

the Richmond-Durham cabin on the
Sharps creek road into the Bohemia

Marion assisted Jack
Klopfenstein, a miner, in a search
for two hounds which had become
lost. They traveled on horseback
through snow two feet deep for a
large part of the night, finally
finding the dogs, one at the Musick
mine, and one elsewhere. The dogs
had been gone 10 days and were
emaciated from lack of food. On
account of the snow, night in the
district is about as light as day.
