A CASE OF BUCK FEVER. 



One day last fall a party of 7 took horse 

 and rode to Mt. Bonaparte for a deer hunt. 

 On getting into heavy timber they thought 

 best to leave their horses, so tied them to 

 some small trees. Then they took to the 

 hills on foot, and, separating, each took a 

 course of his own. 



Presently one of the men, coming over 

 the top of a ridge, saw through the thick 

 underbrush, 200 yards or more away, what 

 he thought was a deer, rubbing its head 

 on a small tree. He raised his rifle and 

 fired, but the supposed deer did not move. 

 On taking a second look, the man saw it 

 was a horse. He went down to ascertain 

 the effect of his shot, and found he had 

 missed the gray horse he shot at, but had 

 killed a black horse standing near. The 

 animal lay stone dead with a bullet through 

 its heart. That ended the hunt that day. 



The unlucky would-be deer stalked decid- 

 ed to walk home and leave his horse for the 

 owner of the ill fated nag he had killed. 

 He had a 6 mile tramp through the deep 

 snow to get home.

The Harrington & Richardson shot gun 

 and revolver you sent me as premiums 

 came to hand. They are A No. 1. I am 

 much pleased with them.
