this Indian by an unerring sense of 
direction, went straight to the blazed 
tree. How they can do this in a 
strange country is a marvel to me and 
they themselves can scarcely explain it. 
HERE we took up the trail only to 
lose it after a short distance. The 
red drops were smaller and farther 
apart and then we couldn’t find them 
at all. It looked as if he had stopped 
bleeding and that we were going to 
lose him. The Indian circled the 
swamp and could find no trace. I 
hunted the hillside but without result, 
and we returned to the place where 
the last sign had been found. 
Apparently the wolf had made his 
escape. The mercury took another 
drop in our thermometer of hope. We 
talked it over and decided that we 
would try it just once more and we 
started out in different directions. At 
last, well to the left along a hillside I 
found a small crimson drop on a twig. 
I stopped at this point, called the 
Indian in and had him circle ahead of 
me and there in a dense thicket of 
cedars, within two hundred yards of 
where we had been forced to abandon 
his trail the day before, we found old 
lobo dead. From tip of nose to tip of 
tail he was over 5% feet long and 
stood about three feet high. By stand- 
ing on his hind legs he could, without 
stretching, have easily reached the 
throat of a six foot man. 
We found that the bullet had hit the 
wolf high in the foreleg, on a vertical 
line where the aim had been taken, 
but four or five inches below center. 
Thus if I had not lowered my rear 
sight the ball would have hit near the 
center of the chest. However, I would 
not have had the unique experience of 
camping on his trail all night. 
The Indian was greatly pleased. He 
said, “Dat darn good shootin’.” He 
even offered me a three months con- 
tract to go with him a week later into 
the far north on his annual trapping 
expedition. He said, “Doctor, you can 
cook de tea and I show you how to 
trap de beeber and de marten. You 
can shoot de otter and de big moose, 
and I will gib you half de furs.” 
WHILE this generous offer on the 
part of old Frank had certain 
attractions, the demands of civilization 
were not to be denied. I thanked 
him, but declined his offer in order to 
return and complete our new clinic 
building and to work where the field 
for human service is so much greater. 
However, if I ever become sufficiently 
restless, or can work up a diagnosis of 
overwork, mental fatigue, brain storm 
or neurasthenia, I am going to pre- 
scribe for myself, or get some friendly 
colleague to prescribe for me, a long 
trapping and hunting trip with my 
faithful Indian.
