there was a deer I'm the field with his
calves near bis house. He went out gun
In hand and waited for the cattle TO come
near him, and although be- had bad case
OF "buck ague" at sight OF such fine game,
he was cool enough 10 make a good shot.
Al the crack Of the gun the deer ran OF
and Mr.. Bunch followed with the hope OF
getting a second shot. lie had not gone
far, however. before he found the buck
lying dead. THIS fine specimen weighed
40 pounds, and had four prOngs 10 his
