Pathetic Moose Case

Curator Thomas A. James has re-
turned from Grindstone, where he
had been on a trip to investigate a
reported case Of an injured moose
and brought back a pathetic story.
The moose was dead, having expired
a few minutes before his arrival and
the only thing to do was to order the
carcass buried. the hide being worth
less, as will be seen from the story,
told by the woodsmen as follows:
TIL woodsmen went to the yard to
resume chopping and on arrival
heard a moose calling from afar,
with a faint answer from another
moose, seemingly close at hand.
They investigated, because some-
thing in that answering cry carried
a message Of misery and suffering
A brief search led them to a spot
where two fallen trees held down
bull moose. his antlers being appar-
emily caught by the falling trees and
holding him a prisoner. He was
helpless, but alive; emaciated and
quiet through exhaustion.
A brief examination of the animal
disclosed the fact that it was not a.
all imprisoned by the trees; but
through weakness had fallen in such
a position that the antlers were
caught under the trees and he was
powerless to release himself, being
unable to arise from weakness and
1t being necessary that he should
arise to release himself
The men were touched by the pitt
able condition Of the moose and then
indignant when they discovered that
the cause of all the trouble was a
terrible bullet wound in the left
shoulder. evidently inflicted during
the recent open season and from
which the bull had been suffering
untold agony in his wanderings
through the woods. until exhaustion
got the better Of him and he fell as
stated. His body was covered with
bruises and scars where he had run
against this and that obstruction in
his sufferings and life was very low.
The woodsmen secured a large sled
