wild geese and bagsed several OF them.
one of which astonished him by having

That goose became the wonder OF the

wherever the wild bird came from there
il got the arrow. so unique i'm formation
that il could be assigned TO no tribe of
Indians i'm the United States or any other

bird and arrow could have come from
no other place on the globe than the
Yukon Valley, for except in that region
no such arrows are made.
Science does not pretend 10 say how
long the goose had carried the arrow of
a Yukon tribesman until it met its death
from the shot of a civilized gunner down
on an Indiana marsh. The bird disdained
