McCurtain Oklahoma ranger Ge Kolb notes a quail safeguarding method, luring and fattening birds for hunting season. A separate “fish hook” guard idea proposes guiding hooks with wire to prevent deep swallowing. A Texas quail nest tale follows, along with a Chinese fish vendor anecdote and a note on fish slime for smooth water movement.

Edwards and Fredonia Revolt Near Nacogdoches 1826
The text recounts Edwards provoking local opposition in Texas by dispossessing settlers in 1825, Austin’s rebuke and cautious stance, the 1826 Fredonia declaration, and Edwards’ defeat with Indian alliances. It then shifts to Moses Rose, the Alamo survivor who refused Travis's line and escaped, with UT Archives supporting the tale.
