TE-VIS-CA-BING 



HE Ottawa region was 

 the very own stamping 

 ground of the Tevi. 

 Bobbie Tevis had 

 created a hunting box 

 in the wilds on one of 

 the innumerable lakes that puncture 

 that country like a sieve. Te-vis-ca- 

 bing he called the roomy log camp, 

 which appellation when strongly ac- 

 cented on the second syllable, sug- 

 gested appropriate Indian. If he 

 had perpetrated " I die wild " or some- 

 thing or other " villa" -but of 

 course, Bobbie would not.
