And it vas Dams voice that urged
her "S1,y, do go on. I was there
that day With my father, and you sang

YES" she accepted, *'out OF sight of

she instantly fell into a sort OF

that she did not want to talk about

She only picked at her food, drink

We started in for our hunt about one
half mile west of the Marshall house
and hunted the woods south of there.
We had good luck all the afternoon
and about shutdown we had secured
the woods back of the fields until we
were two miles or more south of where
we lad started on the land where
the farm and buildings Of David Nitz
are now situated. By this time [ had
shot away all the balls we had for the
rifle and had killed the last few squir-
rels we got with shot. We had guam
tity OF squirrels, over two dozen in all,
strung on strings like a catch of fish,
and were congratulating ourselves that
we had made pretty good afternoons
hunt. We thought we would get one

We had just passed through small
underbrush patch few rods west of
the fence on the Rod Hill farm, and
as we came out into little open place
we saw some eight or ten rods away,
what we took to be hog roofing for
acorns under a burr oak tree. The
dog evidently thought it hog, too.
If anything on earth would attract
him from squirrel track it was hog,
against which animals he had waged
constant war from his puppyhood
days. Cub made grand rush for the
supposed hog and had got within 20 or
80 feet of the animal when with a
"WhooshI Whooshw it reared up on
its hind legs and the trouble began.
Henry turned and ran for the fenced
field, yelling at the top Of his voice,
"a bear! A hearw Evidently he had
lost no bears, was not hunting them
and suddenly concluded it was time to
go home. Ed. gave but one look,
seemed to imagine that the bear hun
gered for a meal of dog and started for
home at rapid gait, yelling, "Hell
kill Cubby! He'll kill Cubby"' He'll
kill Cubby." Cubby, interpreting
that as a hurry up call for his services
in a homeward direction, and evident
ly concluding that this was not the
breed of hogs he had been acquainted
with, beat a retreat to the east ward,
while the bear, no doubt thinking be
had nothing in common with so noisy
a crowd, made quick getaway to the
westward. [ made short run in the
direction in which the bear was going
when [ recollected that No. 8 shot
was hardly the sort of ammunition
with which TO kill bears, and conclud-
ing that, if not followed, the bear
would not go very far that night, de-
cided L would postpone the bear hunt
until morning and go home and mould
some bullets.

Meanwhile, Henry Ell. and Cubby
were fast increasing the distance
between themselves and the supposed
danger. Away to the eastward over
the plowed field could see three dust
clouds marking the path of their re-
treat. They were making good time.
[ took the road to the south of the
field and started for home. When l
reached my uncle's place, the farm now
o ,cupied by Mr. Thomas Smiths FAM
lily, found Henry and Ed. explaining
to my uncle that they were driven out
o. the woods by big bear and that
they thought the bear must have got
me. Ed. declared that the bear was as
big as a COW, Henry said he was much
bigger than COW. Ed. said he came
near biting CUbby, that when Cubby
got almost to the bear, the bear rose
right up and opened his mouth and
showed teeth nearly foot long, When
my uncle and the boys saw me come
into the yard they were delighted and
congratul Ated me on my escape. L
told them that when | last saw the
bear be seemed as anxious TO part
company with our crowd as we were
to leave him. inquired for the strings
of squirrels and found that Henry had
not brought them. He said he left
them somewhere along the way. He
thought if the bear was after them and
the dog that if he left the squirrels the
bear would stop and eat them and
give the boys chance to get away.
Anyway, none of the game arrived
with the boys and it was then too late
TO go back and hunt it up, so there
was our afternoons hunt lost.
Henry and went home to a late
supper and | spent 3 part Of the night
mou ding bullets. Intended 10 get that
bear the next day, if he had not left
the county. l started out very
early the next morning, fully equipped
for bear hunt. But when L got
about half way to my uncle's place
down the Baraboo road, met a party
of the neighboring men. Ed. had
alarmed the whole neigh borhood and
the men had organized an early morn
log hunt They were coming with
the carcass of bruin in a wagon. The
bear had stopped for the night at a
marshy run, about one mile west Of
where last saw him, and the hunters
found him readily in the morning. 1t
seemed to me that / ought to have
a piece Of the bear, but L was too bash
full TO claim it. The men gave me one
of the bears hind feet as a souvenir of
the great hunt. That was all [ had to
show for the afternoons hunt, but the
boys and myself had an adventure 10
remember as long as we should live.
We three often have had good laugh
over our bear hunt The boys wnen
they look back to it, are willing to
admit that the bear was little smaller
than a COW, but Ed. still insists that

foot long when be reared up on his

mouths-the most delicious and soft

clear and straight, and her gray eyes
large and as innocent and appealing
as a child's; under their long lashes
they opened up like flowers. It was
said that no man could withstand their
appeal; that she had but to look to

than once she turned to Dan, smiling
and gracious. RugEles watched her.
