for
erald, by Edna Eaton Wilson for Mullendore Oil Company
,, Ja0 Carl Lorett, 17 year old for many years until his
Yale High school junior, who
received a slight injury to his
right hand in a contact with a
rabid coyote is not finding
the anti-rabies shots too
uncomfortable.
Carl's injury occurred on
or possibly a day or so before
January 12. Carl noticed the
two farm dogs fighting
another animal down in the
hog pasture and went to
investigate, taking with him
a short length of pipe. Upon
seeing the coyote, Carl
proceeded to kill the animal
with the pipe, but in so doing
suffered a bleeding gash on
his hand.
Robert Lorett, Carl's fat-
her observed the strange
behaviour of the animal in
that the coyote did not flee at
the approach of a human,
and called a Cushing
veterinarian who advised
keeping the carcass frozen
until the icy roads thawed
enough to permit travel. This
took a day or two; then the
coyote head was sent to the
State Health Department at
Oklahoma City. Four days
later the report came
back-positive. The animal
was rabid.
rothet! Carl Lorett was started on
ed h the. very latest development
ln treatment for rabies, and
e his is doing fine.
:on H
:er, J Danny Lane and Curtis
nd, flt Wilson both StiUwater high
and school juniors and nature
lovers went hunting on the
weekend and managed to
bag two huge snapping
turtles from the farm pond.
Upon inquiry, the boys
learned that some people
consider the meat of the
snapping turtle a delicacy.
nuarii Also Curtis has a friend
[en M' Horace Strotter whom Curtis
i believes knows just about
everything about wild game
that is worth knowing. The
boys carried their trophies to
Horace, who showed the
boys how to dress out a turtle
for meat. The boys gave
Horace the larger of the two
turtles. Not only did the
turtles provide quantities of
delicious meat, but each
turtle contained more than
20 eggs in the carcass, which
Horace informed them are
"even more delicious than
fish eggs."
Ward Hayes, on hearing
about the turtles told us
"Turtles are real good
eating. There are five
different flavors of meat in a
turtle." Later Dan and Curtis
ate the turtle eggs, fried and
say "they are very good."
Mrs. R.M. Asbury (Jessie
Sanders Asbury) daughter of
!! the late W.S. (Sherm) and
: Armilla Sanders, grand-
daughter of the pioneer
blacksmith Joe Vickrey has
moved from Perry, and is
living in an apartment in
Tonkawa, near her son Bob
(Robert Sherman) Asbury.
Asbury (Jessie San-
ders) was born in Ingalls,
where her father operated a
barber shop, and where her
grandfather had a black-
smith shop. Later, both
families (Sanders and Vick-
reys) moved to Ripley. Jessie
attended school in Ripley for
a number of years.
Jessie's husband was R.M.
Asbury who was farm boss
retirement in the late '40's of
the century. Following re-
tirement from the oil
company, the Asburys mov-
ed to Perry where they built
a home.
R.M. (Rufus) died of a
heart attack in the 1960's.
Following the death of her
husband, Jessie lived on in
the house they had built
together.
Armilla, Jessie's mother
later moved to Perry from
Oklahoma City, and when
Armilla became feeble,
Jessie cared for her mother
until the time of her death
several years ago.
Mr. and Mrs. Asbury had
two sons, Don and Bob. Don
passed away.
Master Will Mikal Brock,
son of Mr. and Mrs. John
Brock, of Sherman, Texas
whose birth was an event of
November 30, 1976, at
Sherman, returned home
with his parents Sunday,
after spending a week
visiting his maternal grand-
parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Kenneth Shell of Glencoe;
and his paternal grand-
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Kirby
Brock southeast of Stillwater.
Will Mikal's parents, John
and Mary Ann, were moving
from one house to another in
Sherman, so his grand-
parents saw an opportunity
to see more of their
grandson, the while letting
the parents get the work of
moving done without having
to worry about the baby's
health during the time of
change.
John and Mary Ann, their
moving done, arrived in the
Kirby Brock home Friday
evening. Will was asleep, but
Mary Ann woke him to say
"hello" to her ecstatically
happy son. Both John and
Mary Ann think the week of
separation from their son
just has to be the longest
week in history.

ment soon to be made of a

ness decisions to be made by
