TWENTY-P POUND WILDCAT
Shot by Charles Rounds of North
Sterlng-Cat Had Trap on Its Leg.

From North Sterling Wednesday
came the story CT how Charles Rounds
of that place had shot a wildcat on
his premises Tuesday night. Mr.
Rounds was in his barn, milking, when
he heard an unusual commotion in the
vicinity of his pig pen. Going there
he discovered the wildcat. Going to
the house Mr.. Rounds got his gun and
shot the animal, which is reported as
weighing about 20 pounds.
Just az Mr.. Rounds shot the beast a
steel trap fell off one leg of the ami
NAL, a piece of the paw coming with
it. The cat must have been suffer-
ing agony on account of the trap be-
ing attached to its paw and it is
thought also that it was probably be-
ing pursued closely because of the
fact that 1t made for an inhabited
place.
