RELIC OF THE EARLY DAYS
PAIR OF ELkS' ANTLERS BEING
MOUNTED FOR STANTON MAN.
ANIMAL KILLED IN STANTON CO.
Probably the Only Pair of AntIers
From an Animal Known to Have
Been Killed in the EIkhorn Valley.
Thirty-three Years Ago.

Sessions and Bell. the taXidermistS,
have received for mounting from Lew
Miller of Stanton, a pair of elk's ant
lers that are of historical interest
While there are many pairs of ant
lers in this section of the country this
is perhaps the only pair belonging to
an elk killed in this territory and may
be the only set the history of which
is known, to be preserved in the val
ley of the beautiful Elkhorn, the name
of which is derived from elks' antlers
The elk holding original claim to
these antlerS was killed on the sec
tiOn farm now known as the Marshall
Field ranch, in Stanton county, east
of Madison, thirty-three years ago, by
a party of Indian hunters. After TAX
ing the hide and the meat the In
dians left the spreading antlers on
the ground where the huge buck had
been slaughtered They were brought
in to Stanton by one of the early
homesteaders and purchased by Tobe
Mack for So. Mr.. Mack hung them in
his barn where they remained for
years and they were finally purchased
by Mr., Miller, who proposes to have
them mounted and placed in his bank
at Stanton
Mr.. Sessions says that during the
summer that the Indians were hunt
ing in this section of the country
there was a herd of nine elk COWS
making their regular feeding ground
the country west of Norfolk, but this
is the only buck known to have been
killed at that time, Many bucks were
killed in the early day, but no value
was attached to the antlers and many
of them were allowed to lie on the
ground until they crumbled to dust.
