Ho&ce, k&ph&rf" SOME MEMORIES OF THE SMOKIES AND OF HORACE KEPHART \0\(qD DEEP CREEK. Many years ago, about 1912 or 1913, a small party of us, six in all, were camping up on Deep Creek at the old Bryson place, about ten miles from Bryson City, the County Seat of Swain County. Beep Creek runs into the Tuckasegee River just this (East) side of Bryson City, a beautiful and rushing mountain stream and at that time was full of speckled trout -- also some rainbow trout. It was really a wild and fascinating trip up to the Bryson Place - from Bryson City - in those days. We went up in a high stout wagon, with two big strong horses to pull us and Mack Thomas, from Bryson City to drive us. He often acted as a guide in the Smokies, knew all the trails and streams, was a fine fisherman and a good shot and knew all about camping and could also cook. A fine fellow to have along. Deep Creek is a very turbulant stream, clear as crystal and deep in spots. We forded it about eighteen times on the way up and some times the water would come into the high wagon. \¥e all knew how to rough it and the wilder a place was, the better we liked it. It was not luxurious camping. No outdoor fireplaces or tables - we had one good tent, blankets and plenty of good food along, wore old but good shoes - no boots - and hob nails in the shoes to prevent slipping on the rocks while fishing. We had blue flannel shirts and
Object’s are ‘parent’ level descriptions to ‘children’ items, (e.g. a book with pages).

These letters between Fred J. Overly and Dodette Westfeldt Grinnell detail Grinnell’s account of a fishing trip the author made with Horace Kephart. Horace Kephart (1862-1931) was a noted naturalist, woodsman, journalist, and author and promoter of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
