loo Hunting in the Golden Days. 



suddenly appears at the carriage window with a 

 blanched face and blood streaming from his left breast. 

 He is carrying a huge duck gun which he fires 

 at Goodbery without further warning. 



There is a tremendous explosion, and Goodbery 

 awakes and finds that he has been the victim of a 

 dream. Footit, being unable to wake Mr. Goodbery by 

 calling him, has let the boot-jack fall on to the polished 

 oak floor, with the result we know. 



Goodbery slowly rises and rubs his eyes, and asks 

 the man-servant what time it is. Having informed his 

 master that it is 7.30, and that he "hopes he has had 

 a good night, as he was sleeping wonderful sound," 

 Mr. Goodbery's servant withdraws. 



It is needless to say that Mr. Goodbery is still a 

 bachelor, and will remain so till the day of his death. 

 There has been a wedding at Buckskin Hall, in which 

 Charley Yaverton and Betty took the leading part. 

 Goodbery has been taught a lesson ; he no longer kisses 

 ladies under the mistletoe, for he says that the dream 

 he had will be engraved on his memory to the day of 

 his death. "I have been a hunting man all my life," 

 Goodbery is fond of saying, "but never before have I 

 hunted any animal on the face of the earth as that 

 woman hunted me that night." 



The End.
