C. G. Andrews showed the Democrat ,
Monday morning photograph such as
vas probably never secured in Oxford
County before. Ii was taken last week
,n the farm where Mr.. Andrews formerly
lived in Lowell, by Mrs. Orson E.
Andrews, and shows landscape with
.wo moose, a bull and COW, in the fore
ground. The moose are not, of course,
within studio range of the camera, but
they are nearer than any one could
expect them to get, and are
good size and show very distinctly. Mrs.
Andrews, who was alone on the place,
discovered the moose and hurried out
with her camera. In getting through
the fence and setting the camera she at
-racted the attention of the moose, and
the bull reared with snort. She snap
ped the shutter and caught him as he
was coming down, while the COW stands
squarely on her feet at his side. The
bull has handsome set of antlers. The
negative is rather thin, but it is one that
many people would give good deal to
have secured. II
