At about midnight we started for the lake.
On reaching it the guide fixed a lantern
with bright reflector on the front of the
canoe. Counting the guide, there were five
in our party. We went up the lake to
small inlet. When we had passed up the
stream short distance we heard a slight
noise i'll the bushes. An explanation of
TINS unusual disturbance was soon found
deer ran to the centre Of the stream and
stood staring at the light. He was beau
tltul creature. large, strong and with
spreading antlers. II made a beautiful pict-
urc. the deer standing in the water with the
light full upon HIM After staring at the
light. he dashed to the bank and disap-
peared.
We went back 10 the camp happy in the
thought that we had accomplished the OBJ
ject Of our exploit and wondering how any
one could kill such a handsome and harm
less creature. unless in need of food.
