A BIG BLACK BEAR,
Killed by Mr.. Patrick Murphy Near
His Home.

For the past several months the
good people of the Porters Chapel and
Pulliam neighborhoods have been con-
siderably wrought up over the frequent
appearance of large animal in that
section of the county. While quite a
number of the citizens had caught a
sight of the terrible thing, and though
several hunting parties had gone out
in search of it, it continued to rove
through the country terrorizing the
inhabitants. On last Monday morn
ing however. it met it's death. While
out in field near his home, Mr..
Patrick Murphy saw it approaching,
and rushing to the house, he secured
his gun and managed to get II shot
at it, which brought it to the ground.
1t proved to be large black bear. No
one knows from whence it came. A
large steel trap was hung to one of
its feet The citizens of the entire
community are very much gratifed
that at last the county is ridd of
such ferocious beast. MT. Pleasant

it from Mrs. Geo. Taylor some time
