Mr.. Henry Baker, one OF the mode
farmers of Muddy Creek, was in tOwT
yesterday and gave us a fox story, which
is so good we send it to you. 1t seems
that Mr.. Baker took a stroll over hi:
farm last Sunday evening, and on look
ing down into n =" sink" discovered foul
young foxes playing around the mouth
of their den, into which they ran on hi
approach. To secure them, he plugged
the hole, and on Monday morning wen
) back. taking with him his son, Frank
and Mr.. Harvey Lewis, intending to di;
them out, but found that the old mOthe
fox had succeeded, during the night, il
removing the obstruction and taken he
young to other quarters. After lookin
around for awhile these gentlemen dis
covered another den, and after diggln
a short distance succeeded in seCurin
seven young red foxes, all of which MI
Baker now holds in captivity, and ye
he claims it WAS not very good da
for catching foxes. because he did nc
capture the old ones.
