Mr. Smith Sells 44-Pound Fish to Rufus Creech, April 8, 1924

Mr. Creech Buys Big Fish

Last Saturday Mr. Graham Smith, proprietor of Smith’s Market, had several large fish on display. A few of the largest were suspended over a truck and carried through the town, called forth a good bit of comment. One of them weighed 44 pounds and was bought by Mr. Rufus Creech of Pine Level Route 1.
