 and 11. is i ;d it. W'e then o.oiSii t.12 railroad, and heating out 



the woods vr. 1 swung down into a valley where both chal- 

 lenged and roaded up the run for so ne distance. A la-ge 

 ho ned owl wis here discovered, perch -d upon a tree, an 1 the 

 judges requited Short to kill it. an 1 he acco -d'ndy let drive 

 at h ; m, but witho at result, except that he flew a 3'iort distance 

 to another tree. Col. Key an I Mr. Co ^krell now took thi matter 

 in hand, and marching up in buttle array they poured a broad- 

 side into the ill-omened bird, wao now, thinking that it was 

 time to seek safer quarters, spread his wings and was silently 

 flitting away, when Air. Cockrell gave him another one. which 

 cut so:neof the quills from o ie win ;•, causing him to becouu 

 lop-sided, and after a short circle he came to the ground c ose 

 to the spectaters and was at once pounced upon and ma le a 

 pdsoner of war. Somi of the boys insisted that Short did 

 not try to kill the biid because he was an avant courkr of 

 his, sent out to show him where the birds were lying, and in 

 proof of this pointed to the fact that the owl had alighted 

 only a short distance from the bevy that we were in search 

 of, which was soon after seen by the spectators, and the digs, 

 who had roaded out the trail and lost it, were swung round 

 toward them. Carrie found .hem first ana fl isliod a brace 

 tmd dropped to win;. She then mi /el on ail drooped on 

 point, but the bird was runuimr, and Gus, who now e'ami up, 

 struct the trail ahead of heranl half poiute 1, but moved 

 on and flushed it Carrie then niide a cast to yard thi h.irsjs 

 and dropped on point to throe birds, and Gus bac ed her. 

 Short flushed then, and th; dirs w mm' sent on into the cotton 

 field, where Carrie soo red a dish, and another ono soon got up 

 near the hand.ers. We then swaa; buck into somjsod;e, 

 where Came challenged and Gus went ahead, an 1 the hi d 

 got up. Carrie thin half poinwd in a plum thicket, when 

 Gus swung round below h:u- and flushed it, and soon aft ir 

 another one got up near him. Carrie then got a capital point 

 on one, which was flushed to order, and Gus put -up another 

 one, when they wore, o.dirjd up, an 1 the heat was awarded 

 to Carrie J. fio wn thirty-Be von minutes. This ended the run-
