Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1900-04-30

dens Moulton and Ames started out tn
same morning to hunt poachers, and afte
following these young men about five
miles came upon them in the act of run
ming down a deer. The following Satur
day two more men were taken for hunting
deer in a yard on the shore of Norton lake
These men also had dog, snowshoes an6
guns. The dogs did not return but the
four men who were taken before Justice
Parsons of Island Pond were required tc
furnish bonds to the amount of 900 each
TO appear at county court. We are very
much surprised to know that some of our
town officers are allied with these poachers
and openly advocate the breaking Of the
game laws at this season of the year when
the animals are helpless in the deep snow.
We are very much pleased, however, to
learn that Commissioner Titcomb has
taken an active interest in this matter and
we trust that this lesson will be warming
to any one who is inhuman enough to
hunt deer in March.
This matter should be Investigated and
q stop put to the killing OF deer out Of
season. We hope that our next leg1sla-
ture will abolish the open season en-
l4Iely. LED
