Chief Forest Warden Raymond Johnson of Rappahannock County ask that hunters be very careful with all types of fire while enjoying the forest this year.

I want to acknowledge that this pleasurable trip was due largely to relatives and friends. Dr. Snead and Betty Coates pushed me all the summer. Betty did everything possible to see that the tour to Hawaii didn’t leave without me. I do appreciate her assistance.

I had a wonderful trip as you have seen by these articles but I was delighted to get back to these people and our beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains. There is no place I’d rather live than in Rappahannock.
