my thoughts were diverted to things 
of the day. We routed a deer—then 
two, three and four—and by the hurry¬ 
ing commotion in the brush we knew 
there were many more in the herd 
that we had not seen. Climbing on a 
large rock we counted thirty-two of the 
fleet-footed animals racing gracefully 
down the mountainside. What a sight! t 
In all the years we had hunted none 
of us had ever seen its equal. We little 
realized we were to behold a far more 
impressive and unusual sight. 
We reached the valley below and 
took the old railroad bed to the mouth 
of the run, eight miles away. The 
corduroy road was anything but smooth 
walking. The log road had been aban¬ 
doned some twenty years ago, the rails 
taken up, and the ties left to rot and 
disappear in their muddy bed. We 
quietly moved along and our hopes of 
getting a glimpse of a deer were re- , 
warded far beyond our greatest ex¬ 
pectation. 
The long slope facing the east, bathed 
in sunlight, was alive with deer—bucks, 
does and fawns. 
In less than eight miles we counted 
more than three hundred monarchs and 
queens of the forest gathered on that 
hillside as if to celebrate some winter 
festival. In every ravine from six to 
twenty were seen. They were drawn 
apart in groups, as though discussing 
some important action. The silence 
made the scene more impressive. They 
moved around slowly, some feeding 
on twigs, others were carefully se¬ 
lecting the laurel leaves, while occa¬ 
sionally one would put its head deep 
down into the snow and get a mouthful 
of moss. Those that were not feeding 
were continually surveying their sur¬ 
roundings, now and then throwing 
their heads in the air to take deep 
breaths. 
At last they “winded” us and the 
alarm was spread. But how? We did 
not know. They moved around ner¬ 
vously until we were sighted. Then 
they stood and looked at us without 
moving a hair. Soon one moved and 
in a moment all were gone while we 
were left standing in wonderment of 
it all. 
Soon we arrived at the mouth of the 
run, at Mix Run Station, nine miles 
west of Grant. We walked through 
the little graveyard that is almost a 
century old, explored the ruins of the 
old log house where Tom Mix was 
born, and the ground where he learned 
to ride and shoot. The house was 
erected by his grandfather near the 
close of the eighteenth century, many 
years before a road was hewn and a 
bed graded through the mighty forest. 
The shrill whistle of an engine 
brought us once more to our senses, 
and the train carried us back to civili¬ 
zation. John C. Shingledeker.
