Death Grapple With a Bear


An Elmira, n. Y, special says: Enfield
Stout, of Tioga CO., has just returned from a
two weeks hunt in Fronteuac CO., Canada,
in company with Thomas Dewitt and Geo.
Pearson, of Schenectady county. he relates
a thrilling adventure his two companions
had with wounded bear, in the tight Win
which they were both badly hurt and mar
rowly escaped with their lives The party
WAS camping near White Lake. Dewitt ana
Pearson had been on the lookout for ceer
that was expected to enter the lake IN front
of the hounds, but it having taken another
course they rowed across the lake toward
the evening on their way BACK TO camp.
As thew were about to leave their ooat tney
heard u great crashing IN thickeS Few
wards away, and the next lhstau' iu.,
grown bear and two young ones appeared
from behind fallen tree. Pearson nreo'
and the old bear fell to the ground. The
hunter. believing that he had killed the an
imal ran to the spot, Dewitt remaining
with the boat. When Pearson reached the
tbicket he was met by the bear, which
had regaiued its feet, having been snot
in the lower jaw, the most OF Wnlcn
was carried away by the rifle ball.
Before Pearson could adopt any means
of defence tine bear .nro. ca:E3.i
upon him, and they both fell to the ground.
Parsons cries brought De Witt to the
scene. but the bear and Pearson were so
closely Rugged together as they struggled
IN the ground that the other hunter did
not dare fire for fear of killing his compan-
ion. The bear was unable to lntlct any In
;ury ON Pearson with her mouth, and he
seized her long hair in his teeth and buried
his face deep in her shaggy fur, thus keep
ing il away from her sharp claws, Win
which she was endeavoring 10 tear it. See
ing that he could not be of any service to
his friend with his gun, De Witt picked up
a heavy club, and by blows with it ne turn
ed the attention of the Infatuated AMI
NAL from Pearson long enough for him 10
escape from her hug and spring to his feet.
The hunter drew his hunIiug knife, and as
the bear sprang upon him again ne plnhged
il into her breast At the same time Inc
bear struck Pearson a blow on his shoulder
with her paw that hurled bin scVeral 1851. G
fell against stump, breaking two OF his rioS ahd
stunning him for several minutes. The bear
then rushed upon De Witt, who IS powerful
Young man. and very tall. De Witt $1,000 MS
ground aud AZ the bear sprang upon Nun ne
threw his arm around her body, and by quick
movement threw her on his left shoulder, wherc
he held her. struggling and buryiug her claws III
his back, aud tearing the flesh to the bone. De,
Witt shouted to Pearson to place his gun against
the bears head MS she hung over his shoulder aha
blow her brains out. BY the time Pearson had re-
covered sufficiently to do De Wits clothing had
been almost entirely ripped from his body Pear,
sou sent rifle ball through the bears head, ana
De Witt held her on his back until she died. Inc

badly that he reached the camp with dimtuitS.
The bear weighed nearly 200 pounds.
