as a dog might, a solitary wolf IN dealing with
moose and nipped the buck smartly on the hind leg
Deeply insulted. the buck wheeled about and
struck at his presumptuous assailant, But Red
Fox was already beyond his reach. After a couple
of futile rtIshes, he gave up the effort and again
moved away grandly about his business. No
sooner had he fairly turned, however, than he telt
again Red FoX's long avenglng teeth III his h1nd leg
With little worry mingled IN his rage, the DUCK
turned once more. But this time he made only one
effort to catch his nnble assailant Then he stood
and eyed Red Fox shaking his proud antlers and
stamping with his fine-edged fore boots. Ihereupon
Red Fox ran around him half dozen times, this way
and that IN dazzling swift circles which kept the
tall animal wheeling nervOusly in the effort to face
him. At last he darted in 50 cleverly that he got
another nip at the bucks hind leg, Whereupon the
buck now demoralized, made wild leap into the air,
and started away in great leaps across the meadow,
over the brook, and through the burned woods
This was a victory to swell even Red FOx's heart
with pride-and his mate had been watching 1t all
from the door of her den The natural and fox
ike thing for the victor to have done now was to
be content with such a triumph But Red Fox
wanted to inflict punishment. Moreover, he had
learned a great deal from the persistent trailing
of the dogs which once had prosecuted him Like
hunting dog therefore, he set out IN pursuit OF
the fleeing buck following him by sight through
the black and bleak ruins of the woods
In few minutes the buck, somewhat short
winded from his earlier efforts, paused and looked
back In a moment he caught sight OF the low red
figure, belly to earth and stretched straight out,
coming up on him swiftly through the blackened
stu1nps In a panic he again till the pursuer
was out of sight Then again he stopped to take
breath running back a little way, after the custom
of his kind, and lying down with his face toward
the danger. But he had no more than settled HIM

than again the red pursuer came in sight, following
implacably. With heart almost bursting the
harasscd buck sprang to his feet and resumed his
flight through the trunks and tall ramplkes.

ever-shortening intervals the fugitves distress

was not killed; and Red Fox had no desire to
hazard final mix-up with those desperate boots.
In this novel chase there had been no thought of
hunting, but only of wiping out affront. At
last though with certain hesitation OF manner,
Red Fox got UP, feeling that he had indicated his
dignity in a fashion that the arrogant bucks OF
Ringwaak would not be likely to forget,
lust at this moment however, affairs took a
totally UNEXPECTED turn. 1t CHANGED that

sank his teeth into the side of the latters neck
Snoring in terror, and galvanized into new life
by the attack the buck sprang forward right IN the
direction of Red Fox. The latter wheeled sharply,
thinking the fight was to be renewed, and darted
back with the intention of making his victory this
time more complete and unambguous. The buck
no longer saw him Blinded by his new panic,
he bounded straight ahead, carrying his deadly
burden Within ten feet of Red Fox however,
as the fates of the wilderness would have it, he ran
beneath low outreaching branch, which caught
the big cat across the ears and swept him clearly
from his perch to the ground, half stunned.
The next moment the mad buck vanished among
the trees. leaving Red Fox and the wildcat con-
fronting each other astonished, with nothing but
a blueberry-bush between them.
Red Fox stopped short, unwilling to face the cat
