A MIGHTY HUNTER.
Shepherd Kills Four Mountain Lions
and Wild Cats.
Especial Correspondence


Richfeid, March BIN a letter writ
ten to his parents by Joseph A. Hunt,
son of Joseph Hunt of this place. he
tells of a very exciting meeting he had
with mountain lions and wildcats on the
5th inst. The young man is herding
sheep for r. G. Miller of Emery county,
and while rounding the herd up on the
date mentioned, he ran across three
mountain lions which were evidently
watching the sheep, preparing for a
feast. Fortunately he had his Win
chester rife with him, and no sooner
had he got 1t in readiness for use than
the lions. evidently encouraged by
numbers. started bounding toward him.
Hunt shot and wounded the one in adj
vance, and killed the second. The third
then turned and fled. The wounded
lion was by this time only a few feet
from him, but a. good shot dispatched
him. The two animals were very large
and fine specimens.
