The grand army of mountain sheep,
who have been camped at Redstone for
near on to two months, are gradually
dissolving. ]. r. Leeming went up to
see them one day last week and could
find only one herd, among them the
famous white one. Mr.. L. reached
within 80 feet of them and found them
tame as the domestic animal. While
they rose at his approach, they made
no movement to run away. Mr.. L..
found one wounded sheep; he had been
shot through the hind quarters. The
sheep were exceedingly poor and not
fit to eat in any contingency. We
learn that two sheep have been shot
and dragged down the line in the
neighborhood of the railroad bridge.
We desire to state that this is a penal
otfense and as far as THE Times is
concerned, we will not hesitate to pro-
secute offenders. A word to the wise
is sufficient. Mr.. Leeming is so much
of a sportsman that he was tempted to
put the wounded sheep out of his
misery.
