 Penu station, Westmoreland county; they are also 

 said to be quite numerous in the vicinity of Allegheny

 county, also in the mountains at Fairandsville above

 keys, is generally followed with wvy unsatisfactory re- 

 sults. I would not recommend any one to go after 

 Bears unless he is able to do a lot of iiard tramping 

 over rocky, brush covered mountain land. You shonid
