A Hit, As Usual
POPULAR TRADITION, - A good crowd turned out once again for the yearly ban-
quet of Quail, rabbit, fish, chicken, pork, possum, chitterlings and other delicacies.
FOOD AND
FRIENDSHIP - Lynn
Davis, Charles Lee,
Sandra Lee and
David Beall take a
break from the tempt-
ing food to catch up
on the latest happen-
ings. This year's
attendance was the
best yet. The men
have already begun
to talk and make
plans for next year's
feast.
HIS WORK LIVES ON - Pam and Elmer Williams look at a bulletin board filled with-
photos and clippings about their late son Myron, the acclaimed taxidermist for whom
this year's feast was dedicated.
Quail, rabbit, fish, chicken,
pork, possum, chitterlings - you
name it, they had it - a wild feast
with all the trimmings. And deli-
cious desserts to finish it off.
Celebrated on Saturday,
• March 13, this annual event has
become one of the most enjoyable
and talked about happenings at
Antioch Baptist Church in
Hogansville. This year's atten-
dance was the best yet. The men
have already begun to talk and
make, plans for next year - check
their hunting plans and you may
guess what wild treat they will be
cooking next time.
This year's feast was done in
memory of the late Myron
Williams, local taxidermist and
member of Antioch Baptist
Church. Myron thoroughly
enjoyed hunting and fishing. His
love for the outdoors and nature
showed in every mount that he
did.
He was a perfectionist - he
wanted his work to be perfect and
he put many long hours into mak-
ing each animal look as realistic
as possible. People came from far
and near to get Myron to do their
taxidermy work - and each per-
son left with a trophy in his hands
after Myron's f'~ touch.
Thanks are eXtehded to David
Beall.and Rev. Wesley Boatman
for m&king the tribute so special:
Numerous pictures of Myron and
his clients, along with their kill,
were displayed, as well as a vari-
ety of mounts he completed - deer
heads, ducks, squirrels, and even
an armadillo.
Memories of great times flood-
ed back as friends, relatives, cus-
tomers and fellow church mem-
bers gathered to honor him and
enjoy this special time. Some 80-
90 guests were present.
