Charles 4. Thomas, who lives on the
Kennedy road, was the first Augusta
citizen to draw Il porcupnc bounty.
He brought in one to City Treasurer
James r. Townsend, Saturday morn
ing, which he had killed near Tolman
POND. The process of collecting the
bounty is very elaborate for a 25-cent
job. First the man has to kill the
porcupine, then amputate the nose and
feet from the carcass, and present them
to the city or town treasurer. Then
q blank application for the bounty
must he filled out and signed and sworn
to. The treasurer must destroy the
feet and nose by burning them before
he pays the bounty, and when 1t is
paid the recipient must sign a receipt
In order to get the city or town re-
imburSed by the State, a certificate OF
the payment of the bounty must be
flied out and sworn to by the treas
for vouchers presented to- the state
treasurer, and another receipt must be
aigncd when he refunds the city or
town for the expense BY the time
it is all done both the successful hun
ter and the treasurer think that they
have earned all there is of a bounty.
Mr.. Thomas dog found the porcupine
which he killed, and got so full of quilts
that he had to be tied in order to pull
them out. But the dog doesn't get the
bounty.
