A VERY, VERY LONG SHOT
And a Remarkable Vision Shown
By an Old Timer.

~ uu Oiu llmoIs
East of Savannah about 10
miles, in Hardin county, some so
years ago, was the heart of q vast,
dense, unbroken forest. On the
banks of "bonny" Turkey creek, q
clear, cold stream, fed by thous-
and fine freestone springs, resides
honest old Fed Brady.
A more quaint, unique and in
teresting character, than Fed has
never been evolved by the remote
backwoods conditions Of Tonnes
see. In build, walk, manner, form
of speech and expression of eye,
he is a typical woodsman, in whom
are faithfully reflected the wild,
wierd, nature-blest surroundings,
amidst which the 70 years of his
hale and happy life have been
spent. His wants are few, and am
ply satisfied with the trophies of
forest and stream, won by his rod
and gun. The latter is an old-time
pioneer, long barrelled, muzzle.
loading rife and has been his con-
slant, oft tried and true compan.
ion through all these years.
Fed glories in "reminiscences of
the past, when Indian creek from
source to mouth was canebreak,
and the dense forests through
which its crystal course lay, were
alive with deer and turkey, and its
tributaries teeming with trout and
black perch. He told me some
time ago, that he was hunting on
Smiths Fork, between daylight
and sunup one morning in the car
ly 7Os and that he was standing in
a small "new ground" at point
but a few yards below the site of
Mr.. John Lacefield's present resi-
dence, when he saw q large buck
walking along in a fenced field,
down the creek. When the deer
reached the fence to the east, at
the foot of a high, heavily timber
ed hill, he reared up as if to leap
the fence, but to Feds surprise,
the deer placed his fore feet ON
the top Of the fence and remained
in that position. Fed, though a
long way off, could not resist the
temptation to try shot at him.
He aimed 0ffhand and fred. AT
the crack of the gun the deer's
head and tail struck together back

ed On a close folding hinge. Al
the moment of impact between the
deer's head and tail Fed saw a
pinkish looking spray fly from the

,. gray, mist.like something float
upward, into the timber on the

distance from where he fred The

was just LOO yards. The bullet
had carried away the middle YER

the bucks head were sprinkled
over the ground, and his tail was
as bare of hair as Feds finger. In
Feds opinion the deer's head and
tail had c0llided with such force
from the muscular shock of the
bullet, that the blood and brains
