A communication to Forest and Stream on September 23d, under the 

 heading "A Magnificent Adirondack Deer," told of the shooting near North- 

 ville of a buck that weighed the day after it was dressed fully 300 pounds. 

 Inquiry at the office of the American Express Company showed the weight 

 recorded as 285 pounds. Further inquiry resulted in the following interest- 

 ing letter: 



Northville, October 21, 1905. 



Forest, Fish and Game Commission, Albany, N. Y.: 



Gentlemen. — * * * The deer was weighed by I. A. Brownell in 

 the presence of Frank Chegree of this place and Walter Scott of Brooklyn. 

 It was not weighed at the depot where they billed it at 285 pounds on the 

 word of Robert Brownell. Mr. Scott, Mr. Chegree and myself will all verify 

 the weight by affidavit if necessary. 



We also shipped to the Eagles, a fraternal order at Gloversville, eight 

 other deer, including four bucks weighing 245, 230, 175 and 156 pounds, 

 respectively. The 156-pound buck had fifteen prongs and was one of the 

 finest heads ever seen in this part of the deer country. We also sold to 

 Christman, of Amsterdam, a buck weighing 236 pounds and there was one 

 killed by Mr. E. C. Roberts that weighed 250 pounds. * * * 



Yours respectfully, 



I. A. Brownell.
