Crockett's coon, started 10 come down. The
bold hunter prodded the spiney body of
animal and endeay0rei TO shoe" him back
up the tree. Like another species of hog
the animal didn't shoe worth a cent,
What sils the varmintt" exclaimed the
hunter prodding vigorously. Down clam
bered the hog and the hunter thought he
could detect vengeance in his eye. Dropping
TO the ground TIN. hedgehog charged on the
hunter. who turned and ran a. though tht
nemesis Of Nimrod were on HIS trail. But
in hess than a minute the hedgehog disap
peared into hi, hole The animals fright
was his apparent ternerity. The bold hunter
stood between the hole and the tree and the
hog would have run him down if necessary
