Pearse the Landlord and His Montana Zoo at the Hump
Allen Pearse, visiting after a two year California stay, once ran the Hump stage station between Butte and Deer Lodge. His Montana zoo featured a bear, antelope, four coyotes, sheep, elk, buffalo, squirrels, jackrabbits, a polecat, and the region’s only rattlesnake, plus owls and eagles. He recalls lively dances, weekly gatherings with Deer Lodge and Butte crowds, and says the west’s early travel era made for a close knit community.
