Trapping Rabbits

De: John Isaac Jones

Narrado por: James H Kiser

This short story is a testimony to the depths of parental love.

One day in June of 1951, Billy Johnson's father delayed plowing long enough to teach his son how to trap a rabbit. In the past, he had never seen his father delay plowing for any reason, especially when he was using black hired hands.

Over the years that followed, he always assumed the motive for the lesson was nothing more than a father who was an avid sportsman teaching his son to trap a rabbit. After his father died, he learned differently.

I almost cried! Soooo good!

Here is a short punchy story that sold me in about two sentences.

Written well, narrated excellently. Potent little mystery story. It might make you almost cry unless you are a robot.

More than I was expecting

I'm never sure what to expect from a story this short, but this one had far more impact than I was expecting.

Story of love and survival this is worth listening to, probably more than once.

The narration was delivered well with a smooth and natural sounding pace.

Good read

Going Home by John Isaac Jones was a good quick read. Archie is preparing for his death in the electric chair. They were about to pull the switch when he remembered that there were some things he wanted to take care of.

👍🏻

A great little short story. Well worth a listen. I found the narrator a tad monotone so it wasn’t my favorite. But still I loved the story.

A generational passing of values.

This is a short story of the passing down of values, both spoken and unspoken, from father to son. It's a brief glimpse of a memorable day in the life of a young boy farming along side his father. It tells of the strength of the fathers practical example to his son as well as the imparting of a bit of training which takes the son a couple of decades to fully understand the significance of.
