pened in the season of 1914. I had sold 
my own rifle before I went away with 
the first Canadian contingent, but a 
couple of days before the boys sailed I 
was discharged and returned back to 
my work. Then of course I had no rifle 
for the hunting season, so my boss said 
I could use his some time, so we started 
to hunt together when the season 
opened. It was the first hunt the old 
boy had ever had and I sure did have 
some great laughs during that season. 
We were just started away one after- 
noon when I heard a shot, and the old 
fellow was carrying the shooting iron 
so I told him to be on watch as the 
deer might come down our way. He 
was standing on a rock about six feet 
above me when all of a sudden out 
jumped a fine doe about thirty feet 
away from him, also a year old. Well, 
if he didn’t fool around with the mus- 
ket until the two deer had gone and 
then he sat down and started to laugh 
Well, we went on a bit farther and 
Rustie spied another one. He was a 
little ahead of me and when he saw it, 
instead of trying a shot, he came tear- 
ing back to me. ‘Come on, Bill, here’s 
another one up in the ridge.” I said, 
“Why in the devil didn’t you take a 
crack at him.” He said: “I forgot.” 
Another big laugh for us both, but I 
thought it was time I took the gun 
from him, so I did. And before I got 
home that night I had shot the only 
buck that was shot that day, but the 
joke of it was, we had eleven miles to 
carry him in and Sunday at that. 
One night a fellow we called Bud was 
out with me and he had never shot a 
deer, so I took him with me. Well, he 
sighted one before I did myself. He 
gave me a push and said, “Do you see 
that deer over between those two 
trees?” I looked and sure enough there 
was a deer standing watching us be- 
tween two trees. I told my friend to 
take a shot at him but by the time Bud 
had his rifle to his shoulder the deer 
was gone, so I saw where I had to be 
watching. Well, we went on farther 
down through the bush and upon a high 
rock about sixty feet I saw a beauty 
standing upon the very top. I gave 
Bud the chance again at the same time 
taking aim myself. I was taking no 
chances this time. 
Well, he stood there aiming and I 
thought it was time to shoot so I shot 
and away goes Bud scrambling up the 
rock. When I got him, he said, “my 
first deer.” I thought it was funny if 
he shot as I hadn’t heard his rifle go off, 
so I told him to look at his gun and 
see if he had fired, when to his sur- 
prise he found it still loaded, one 
| could have bought him for a nickel.
