shoot it on the wing. Anthony crawled
little ahead and fired, only wounding
the duck, and Duchene, seeing it rising
out of the water, aimed and fired, but
just as he pulled the trigger, Anthony
raised up and received the full charge in
the back of his head. Mr.. Duchene was
Mortified at what he had done but called

Darche officiating, and the remains were
