A thrilling adventure Of one of
the early settler. of northern Ohio
is communicated as follows TO the
Pomeroy Crescent: In, or about the
year 1926, Mr. Jacob Utzler, a
German, resided on the banks of
the Raccoon, one hundred and one
miles from Its mouth, now Wilkes
township, four miles directly west
ofthe f~Our:shing village of Wilhes-
vile. On a sultry day IN July,
Mrs. Utzler was buzily engaged IN
some culinary employment on the
gallery porch, or stoop, as it was
then called, her infant child gam
boiling about six feet distant TO her,
when a huge bear made his ap-
pearanee, seized tho child By the
skirt and broke for the woods.
The heroic mother, instantaneous
ly comprehendIdg the SITUATION of
her child, seized al axe and gave
old bruin Q hot chase. When he
arrived at the yard fence, in at
tempting to leap 1t, missed his aim,
and turned a complete sommersault,
and in the confusion landed on the
outside of the fence, while his prey
landed on the inside. 1t is need
less to say the mother seized the
child and made for the house and
firmly fastened the door. The bear,
nothing dauntej, made his way
tack over the fence and resumed
the attack. Mrs. UtzIer 500 a.
reused her husband, who was at
work in the harvest field with Mr..
Henry Grimes Gather of Mr.. James
Grimes who now resides in Rut-
land), by her shrieks. Old bruIn,
regarding prudence the better part
of valor, on the appearance of rein>
forcements, ~retreated up neigh
boring chestnut tree. Utzler, by
the aid of a trusty rife and Mr..
Grimes, made short work of his
bearshlp, and instead of feastlng.
he was feastd upOn.
