 ing the Cheyennes to be the ad- 

 vance guard of a larger party, the 

 Sioux turned and fled. I mounted 

 my horse, and we chased them to 

 the creek, killing another of them 

 before reaching it. There we gave 

 up the pursuit, and left that vicin- 



We arrived at Major La Zelles' 



camp without further mishap. 

 There we obtained much needed 

 rest, and food more palatable than

MISS HARRIET M. RICHARDS AND HER BEAR. 



When at home, Miss Richards is said to 

 be a modest and unassuming young lady; 

 but in the woods she is a thorough sports- 

 woman and has no fear of any beast found 

 in the wilds of Maine. She is an expert 

 with the rifle and is an accomplished angler. 



She has a 38-55 rifle which was made to 

 order and with which she has. in previous 

 years, shot several deer, though this is her 

 first experience with bear.
