A MOOSE HUNT IN NEW ] 
BRUNSWICK 
{Continued front page 439) 
A t daybreak anorner venison feast 
awaited us and after consuming a 
third or fourth helping around we hitched 
the team to the wagon and were soon 
headed into the forest. The clear, crisp 
morning air bit at my nostrils as I in- i 
haled its invigorating tonic deep into niy 
lungs, and it exhilarated me to such an 
extent that I felt like shouting. 
We made good time until we reached 
the river, as this part of the road had been 
used during the summer by campers in 
quest of the elusive trout, but from there 
on to the headwaters we encountered the 
worst roads imaginable, and we had to 
chop out windfall after windfall that 
had fallen across the old portage and 
retarded our progress. Fresh moose and 
deer signs were plentiful, and Roy walked 
and hunted some distance ahead of the 
team, not knowing when a big fellow 
would show up. Sometime in the after- 
noon I crawled up into the seat beside 
Vealla, tired out. We stopped beside a 
dead birch stub while Frank was cutting 
away a windfall ahead of us. Suddenly 
our attention was attracted to a little 
woodpecker which was making the forest 
ring as it drove its bill into the hard 
stub extracting worms. We watched the 
little fellow curiously for several min- 
utes as he jumped from side to side, drill- 
ing hole after hole. Vealla turned to 
me and with an assuring shake of his i 
head drolled out in a matter of fact way : 
“Ba crass, that bird she got one hard ' 
face, huh?” 
As we rounded a bend in the road we 
suddenly found ourselves on the edge 
of a small clearing containing two shacks. 
One was used to shelter horses and the 
other had been some lumberjack’s quar- 
ters a few years before. Here we camped 
on the left fork of the Salmon River, 
in the very heart of the great moose 
country. 
We were not long in pitching the tent, 
building a fire and making ready for the 
night, and soon the wonderful aroma of 
boiling coffee and venison steaks filled 
the air. We were all so hungry after 
our hard trip that we ate voraciously, 
and personally I have never tasted a 
meal that I relished quite so well as I 
did this one. Dishes cleaned np and 
pipes lit we sat around the fire planning 
the procedure for the next morning until 
about eight o'clock, then the fire was 
extinguished and Frank rolled a piece of 
birch bark into a hornlike shape, and 
placing it to his mouth produced a long 
drawn-out bellow, not unlike the sound 
of a cow moose when she has a newly- 
born calf. 
W e listened lireathlessly for several 
minutes, but there was no response. 
Again placing the horn to his mouth. 
Frank called a little louder, and in less 
than a minute we heard a faint answer 
from one of the far-off ridges. Frank 
called at intervals, each time being an- 
swered a little closer, but finally he could 
no lunger get an answer. The excite-
