until he was hid from view behind a
bunch Of trees. My freud had a
magazine rifle, holding nine cartridges,
so he didn't lose any time in firing at
the next one. Strange to say, he ap-
parently missed this time, and the
caribou walked away just like the first
one. Then he tried for the third, and
so on up to the ninth and last one.
Each time he seemed to miss and each
time the caribou disappeared behind
the trees. Thinking there vas some
thing funny about it he went out to
look and-well, he found the whole
nine of them stretched out on the ice
