Rabbit catching caper ends in failure and laughter
A rural tale recounts Holly Mills and Ed Hester attempting to trap rabbits with a rubber hose and a sack after reading an almanac. Their talky method fails as rabbits stay hidden, prompting mockery and backpedaling. The piece then shifts to local politics and reform concerns with references to Hinshaw and a Geneva school scandal.
