====================================================================
AMONG THE WILD BEES
(Check)Excerpt of Story By S. C. Turnbo


An incident of hunting bee trees on Lick Creek that flows into Big North Fork in 1841 is worthy of mention.

The story of which was given me by Rufe Haskins on the 28 of March, 1895.

Mr. Haskins said that in the summer of the year mentioned he and Preston Haskins and two of the Green brother, Jess and George, John George, James George, George Fritts and Fritts’ son, John Fritts, or eight men in all went into this valley in an ox wagon to pass a few hours in a merry way hunting bee trees.
