HUNTERS I.OSK OL'NS
According to reports, deep sea
divers demand that conditions be
exactly right or they will not work
t! tholr trad- lit Ashland Iiiih a
diver, who demands nothing, and Is
willing at all times to dive, no mat
ter how deep the water, nor how
cold, ' Just to accommodate his
friends. The diver is Ed Coovllng.
Two weeks ago, Frank Murphy
and Kred Cuahlng Journeyed up
the Klamath River on a duck hunt
ing expedition. In some manner,
their boat turned turtle, and tholr
guns were lost In twelve foot of
cold, cold water. Tho hnntors re
fused to tell what caused their
boat to capsize, but their friends in
sist they doted off while waiting
for the ducka to come. At any rate,
the guns were lost and the boys
n eclvud a ducking.
Last Sunday. Willi borrowed guns,
the nu n went back to the scene ',f
their accident, but this tlmo thoy
look ('novllng. Tbcy explained the
entire nfalr (o Ed, and asked hlmj
to dive for the guns.
Although Ice fringed the tules,
and tho water was colder than '
ever, down went tho diver. Up hoi
camo with Cushlng's gun In Ills'
hand, A roaring fire was built, and;
after he had warmed up Covellng
tried a second lime. Again ho was
successful and Murphy had his duck-
slayer back.
Today a gunsmith Is working over;
the guns, removing the mud, but
Ooovling says his diving days are'
over, especially for sleepy duck
hunters. Ashland Tidings.
