tice to them will say they told me
they had received a complaint sent
to them, stating the deer had gored
a calf's eye and had molested the

They sent the game warden from Bar

if he found it right, to kill the deer
They promised me to make thor

have talked to most of the people
around here and cannot find anyone
who says the deer was vicious. We

the complaint. We intend to have it
seen to who is to blame, and will
write you again and let you know
how it comes out.
