deer and running hard. The deer
was almost exhausted but managed
to keep ahead of its prosecutors un-
til the attention of some men at work
in a potato field was attracted and
they managed to drive away the
dogs. The animals next to the Aire-
dales were two mongrels, followed by
a hound and terrier
The department first received word
of the affair Monday evening through
Warden r. ]. Upton, who before
breakfast Tuesday morning was in
vestigating the case. AS fast as the
dogs owners were located, they were
given official notice that complaint
had been made to the department of
their animals chasing deer and
warned of the penalty for a repeti-
ton
