Forest reserves were established on the Dismal river in 1902 and millions of seedlings had been grown by 1906 for transplantation in Nebraska and other states of the Great Plains.

"Yep," says Delmonico, "Gopher Grease and Trinity can follow out tracks in the grass.  I'll dispute ya though, rattlesnake tastes like rattlesnake, it don't taste like chicken." ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

"Must warn ya though, Gopher Grease is gonna bring a whole wagon load a shotgun shells with him, he don't like any kinda snake.  He shoots garter snakes a half dozen times, bet he'd use a whole box on rattlers." :o

"I am not gonna pick shot outta no rattler so ya can cook it up. I shotgun a tree rat in the north woods with a 12 bore. I skinned it, saw all dem pellets in the hide, and throw it in da brush. I only shoot em with my trusty .22 rimfire, now."

"When Gopher Grease gets done there ain't no snake left.  Y just gots ta put de pellets from the shotgun only in de head when shootin' them tree rats Slim.  Thats what a ulways did." 

But ya ain't gonna have ta worry bout that up there Slim, there ain't gonna be no trees.  So be careful ya don't just trip inta the river, cause there ain't no trees of big banks ta mark it like in Wissyconsion.  You gots a lot ta learn bout this country." ;D ;D ;D

Russ T. Chambers comes ridin’ through on his way back to Nevada Territory, and takes note of the vegetation.  “Looks more like parsley to me!  Maybe that’s why Delmonico likes this area so much?  Now that he has Slim in tow, he should cook him a little tongue.  It might taste like chicken, or maybe rattlesnake?”  Russ sets spur and rides off into the West.

Delmonico says, "Slim ya googled up a Tourism Board photo, that be upsteam bout 75 miles from our ranch, it ain't got no canyons down there!  Near our ranch the banks are bout 12 inches high and in the future it will be one of the most dangrous rivers ta canoe.  It be so smooth a water folks don't watch and can gets decapitated by a bob wire fence cross the river." :P :P :P

"They didn't have no bob wire fences cross the river in Deleverance did they,"
says Delmonico. :( ;D

Trinity checks his Remmingtons what he took from a dead yankee and keeps a vigilant eye out.  This doesn't sound good at all!

Suddenly the music of duelin' banjo's starts ta play, Trinity and Slim try ta find a place ta hide, but out in the sandhills of Newbrasskey there ain't no tree or rock ta hide behind.  Delmonico says, "I ain't worried bout no hillbillies, theyed take a liken' ta Trinity, before me cause I got piles. :P :o ;D

"What I be worried about is that guy from Nevady that just passed by.  I used ta work third shift and I know all bout those folks from Nevady cause I used ta listen ta Art Bell cause there ain't nothin' else on the radio that time a tha night." ;D

"Slim just so ya gots a place ta hide, why don't you and Trinity dig a hole in the side of that hill, we'll build it inta a dugout, kill to birds at once here."  I'll ride up north and get us a ridge pole fer the roof up on the Nyebrara where they be trees.  I won't be gone long and I'll just stay in this thread.

Unaware of Gopher Grease's new snake killing shootin' irun, Delmonico reaches a creek runnin' inta the river also sometimes know as the Running Water.  He cuts a long pine, and decides to name the creek after it, Long Pine Creek.  Later settlers would name their town the same thing in honor of Delmonico's ridge pole. ;D

He then ties the pole to the back of his mule and heads back ta the ranch, laughin' to himself cause he knows Slim al' google up a map of present day Brown County just ta see if he be lyin'. ;D
