SHOT THE DUCK.
Man Had Nursed IL and Let IL
Only 10 he Killed.

Man Had Nursed IL and Let Ii Go
Only to be Killed.
One of our sportmen, who resides
on the outskirts OF the borough, a
short time ago shot AT and crippled
a specie of duck called a Diver. He
caught it and took il home and doc
tored it, so that after a while 1t was
able to fly again. He let IL go then,
but it had not got very far from him
when he saw a man running towart
it with a shot gun and he shouted
him not TO shoot the duck. t.
man did moi hear him or else he
didn't want to hear him and he
blazed away at it, knocking it over
and killing it. 1t being in the water
the ice came floating towards IL and
beneath it so it was taken out of the
mans reach and laid within sight of
the shore for a couple of days and
then disappeared.
The one who had saved the duck
and doctored it said it was a great
note that a pot hunter should shoot
il after all his trouble and then not
get it after all. Perhaps a third
party may find it when the ice melts
and think they have a prize and the
poo duck with a history may do
omeon seem good after all.
