something stuck there just like ber-
ries on huckleberry bush. These
human things that she lived with had
mighty peculiar habits that were
quite prehensible to her. They
moved around in something instead
of on their own hoofs like she did,
and when they got out OF these swift
ly moving things they left them park
ed in the streets. Then they came
in to this place for some reason or
other and all parked their cuds on
the bottoms of their seats ard as

of the accumulated cuds of three
years.
She had a charming curiosity that
knew no bounds. One day Katrine
was proceeding to the postotIice for
mail, dragging large, fiat, paste
board box behind her, attached to a
string. She intended bringing the
mail home in it. 1t made a queer,
shutting noise on the cement walk
and about this time Betsy happened
along and the noise of this strange
thing seemed to be following a little
girl aroused all the curiosity that
slept in Betsy's heart. She sped
swiftly down the street in pursuit
and when she reached the strange
and unknown thing she leaped on it
with her tiny front hoofs. The lax
cord was jerked from unconscious
Katrine's hand. Ready for a fight
she turned menacingly to see who
dared to interfere in her affairs.
When she saw it was Betsy she gave
her sharp, singing blow across her
sensitive nose. Now, Betsy had as
much fight born in her as Katrine
and straightway she rose on her hind
legs and struck back with her sharp
little front hoofs. The unexpected
retaliation from deer, so amazed
the child that she turned and sped

she found herself pursued. brought

| it for it was Betsy's intention to
prove her rights in Punta Gorda as a
deer understood them.
Betsy had dog friend who was
poisoned few weeks back and this
was as much of a tragedy in her life
as the loss was to the owner of the
dog. She didn't like all dogs and
when any of them took, what she
considered, undue familiarity in try
ing to know her, she had way of
turning like a flash and planting a
hind kick on that dogs person that
sent him quickly about his business
and he knew all he wanted to know
about Betsy from that time, on.
Not having any goat blood in her
ancestors, Betsy didn't always know
how to negotiate a flight of steps
when she was calling on some of our
townsmen. Getting up was easy
enough but down meant something
else. Before she learned just how,
she would range herself sidewise, in
stead of head first, and let down a
hind foot first and then a front foot
and thus proceed to the bottom. The
intelligent way in which she master
ed life in a city was constant source
of interest and surprise to us humans
and we are as saddened over her I'M
timely death as if she belonged per-
sonally to each of us.
To us, she was not deer but
dear.
May she rest in peace.
