Former Governor Bags a Turkey, November 1920

Monday a number of Scotland Neck's hunters, among them Mr. W.H. White, Mr. N.A. Riddick, Ex-Gov. Kitchin and Dr. Liverman, went turkey hunting over in Northampton County and while some of them saw wild turkeys and di some shooting at this king of table fowls the Ex Governor was the only one that bagged one, a fine young gobbler. It is said this was his first turkey hunt and of course his first wild turkey. He made a good govenor and there is no reason why he should not make an expert turkey hunter.
