Talk about transmigration cf
souls but there is no, there was
a gopher down near Farmington,
that at some time must have been
a man, and a mean one, at that.
John Sorenson, a farmer of that
section, had for several weeks been
catching gophers, using the old
time gopher gun, which dis
charged by a spring. Mr. Soren
son had caught all tho gopher
family but the old father of various
generations, and each the man
and the gopher was after the
other's scalp. Sorenson went to
his gun Friday morning, and it
didn't lay to suit him. He dug
down to the muzzle of tho gun,
took hold of the end of the weapon
and started to shoot it, when Mr.
Gopher jumped out of his hole,
sprung the wire and discharged the
gun, causing Mr. Sorenson to lose a
portion of one of his hngers, the
shot entering hia digits in several
places. Seeing that the man
didn't tumble over the gopher then
tried to bita Sorenson's hand but
by this time the man was mad, and
finally triumphed by killing Mr.
Gopher. Sorenson thinks that for
downright cuteness the gopher
beats "Br'er Rabbit." Mr. Soren
son says this is just exactly as it
happened, and that it the gopher
had boen big euough ha would now
be filing a suit to contest Soren
son's title on the grounds of
adverse possession for ten years
and boat the Sorenson heirs out of
the farm.
