neighborhood without attracting
very particular attention. He
worked as farm laborer for the
late William Beck, and was a
nightly visitor in town. The last
seen of him alive was on Thanks

night was afterward remembered
for the violence of severe wind

and shooting a sheep which | did

which ! did not shoot. Accompanied
only by an Indian | had just picked
my way up the side of a steep-walled
valley to a tableland, upon which, ac-
cording TO report brought to US the
night before, fresh sheep tracks had
been recently noted. We reached the
mesa at point where, in shadow our
selves, we could watch a great slash
OF sunlight cutting through gap in
the eastern ridge and descending like
a wedge of gold into the semi-dark-
ness of the lower valley. AS the tip
of the wedge Of light touched a jut-
ting point on the mesa's outermost
rim, it revealed with startling sud
denness a well-grown young ram
standing sharply in relief against the
blur of blue mist that filled the valley.

shoulder at which aimed. The
young ram toppled forward over the
brink Of the cliff and simultaneously,
another animal leaped after him from
the shadow, while a number of others
scampered back out of sight into a
rocky gully which cut the mesa at
that point.
We descended to the bride trail,
200 feet below the cliff, TO find, lying
on the outer edge, not the animal
had shot, but much larger ram with
a shattered, but still magnificent, pair
Of horns. The wounded sheep had
evidently struck a projection Of the
cliff in his descent, this DETECTING the
body sufficiently to clear the trail and
bound on into the valley below. The
unwounded ram, leaping out from the
brow of the cliff, had fallen straight to
the bride trail and been instantly
killed. The body of the wounded
sheep was carried away in the swift
mountain torrent which ran at the
base of the cliff.
