Considerable excitement and sport
was apparent in the North end. yester-
day afternoon. when flock of ducks
landed on the shores of the Kennebec
opposite the Edwards mills. Several
young men watched the maneuvers of
the game for some time. one of the
number being suddenly seized with an
inspiration and started for a gun. He
returned with an antiquated muZZle-
loader that had seen better days and
began blazing away. The young hun
ters fired several rounds with no other
effect than the wasting Of powder. The
flock stood the fire sometime and prob
ably considering the locality little to
noisy, proceeded further up the river.
They returned later in the afternoon.
remaining undisturbed as the should
ers of the hunters We're in no condition
to stand another skirinish fire.
