There was quite an excitement the other
day At Mountainy Pond caused by the run

Mr.. Prichard. The bare fact that pair

age and daring OF Mr.. Paris W. Gray. a

miration OF those who witnessed II and the
gratitude OF the owner OF the team. 1t seems
that Mr.. Pritchard got of his sled To speak
with some one behind him when the horse

down the pond. About one-half mile from
where they started was landing of logs
owned by Lewis Silby & Co. The landing

time, hearing n noise he glanced up the
pond and there beheld a sigh; sufficient 10

were coming on the run with upliited heads
and steaming sides their ewes flashing fire
and snorting with terror and anger. The
sled was broken and pieces flying in all
directions, occasionally one striking The
poor brutes. goading them on 10 m In
crease OF spce,'. not one man IN five hun

animals but Mr.. Gray knew no fear. He
placed himself directly in front of them

he seized the bride. a brief struggle ensu-

clerk Of Shackleton church were, unseen by
him, crossing the churchyard toward the
grave Of Nelly Chuf, just as Tom the
poacher stumbled and fell. Suspicion Of
direct violence would otherwise have in
evitably attached to the exasperated
brother. AS it was, the catastrophe was
followed by no legal consequences.
The good vicar kept his word, and the
grave Of Tom Chuff is still pointed out by
the old inhabitants of Shackleton pretty
nearly in the centre of the churchyard
This conscientious compliance with the
entreaty of the panic-stricken man as to the
place of his sepulture gave horrible and
knocking emphasis to the strange combina-
ton by which fate had defeated his pre-
caution, and fixed the place of his death.
The story was for many year, and we
believe still is, told round many cottage
hearth, and though it appeals to what
many would term superstition, 1t yet
sounded, in the ears Of rude and simple
