Al Lynn

[cecil j.]

Mike, I have little doubt that it was foul play for several reasons. I am not about to print anything here that would be subject to a libel suit. We spent several long days looking for his body. If you are really interested, call me, but I will not post what I know.

your up there were Mike Spencer lives I think?

I was wondering if anybody out there has any material, or photos of Al Lynn.

Al was a famous lion and bear hunter from California who was mostly noted for being a very astute hound breeder. He wrote for the early Full Cry magazine for a number of years. He went missing mysteriously on a hunt and was never seen or heard of again. He had made some enemies as he would not sell dogs to very many folks. I know Dale Lee thought he just had an accident or a heart attack out hunting and was never found. Others beleive he was taken out, but nothing was ever found.


Any information would be greatly appreciated.

hey its jack shareing this tid-bitt to ya 4 all westcoast bigbgame hunters too view an ponder : Al Lynn told all us hunters that he was a genitic folling gene pass-on trates contorsure of Walker dogs/we believed him ! Yrs. later after owning several Joe House dogs/streight-out of joes kennel pins in clinton ky. I was moved back too tn/ my birthland place an about 100 from joes house. I wanted to buy a puppy from joe now that I`m in tn and give my walkers away befor I left ca. ; an I drive over too joe place and introduce-myself in person too joe house. we talked/i brought-up al lynn an that al told us joe house`s dogs go back too one key female in all commen house line offsprings/ Houses Queen ! Joe house looked down an shoulk his head an softly said/ he was wrong . I reintered too joe how highly we in ca. noted on Al Lynn ! Joe nodded comformation to adknowledging that too be held a matter of fact. Then Joe added the real source of the well stream was House`s KING ! he said he was the smartest and allaround best and it was from him that it all sprang-forth too breed on and up from the get !Al Lynn didnt learn that from joe/Allyn dissapeared befor joe house finally narrowed-it-down right ! openions may change/but facts remain= Ed Bates allways use to say about the truth ! so i guess its worthy news and it took joe alot of house line of breeding walkers to be sure an too his held views it is rock-solid !jack of wa.st.

I just today discovered a big error i made an want to clear it up/ I said Joe House stated it wasent Houses Queen that actually traces back in his dogs too be the right hound/ he said White River King . He didn`t own king but hunted with him and he said he was the dominent stud dog in all Joes own line too make it work. I was goen on memory and saw the story on Lester Nance in print too day and ho he helped Joe House / J>C> Elles and others start and then they took over the march of the todays walker tree hounds . Mr. Joe if ya hear about this pleas know I did corect my self too the public/ my mistake. Ya didnt try too credit your self for KING and I didnt understand you was given higher note too Mr. Lester (my appoligeys)
