Company have opened their regular Fall
Company. The President of the Company,
(the same Squire who was fooled about the
bears) took the lead, not long since, in an ex-
pedition to the mountain. They holed some
thing, and the Squire who is always on the
look out for bears, said that it was surely a
bear, for he knew it by the smell. They un-
earthed the animals, whith proved to be four
Skanks. The 'Squire's ardor cooled immedi-
ately, and the rest of the Company had very
hard time in persuading him from returning
home at once. They have, however, succeeded
in capturing about dozen raccoons this fall.
