"These hunters were camped on Black Creek, ten miles north-east of McCoy in 1912. They are: Rudolph Ebert, Carl Schrupp, Ernest Werner and Fritz Arendt. The photo by Martin Schomers. At that date, it's doubtful if any one of the group possessed a hunting license. Note the grouse hanging on the tree, one of the reasons that grouse, once so plentiful in those days, are so scarce now." -- McCoy Memoirs, p.11
