in a class by themselves In their
 many successful hunts. both worked on
 the same theory, that a fox once start ed will run in circle often a pretty
 large one, but he will surely swing round and pses the startling point again.
 MT. Bliven once took two 5ewett City
 boys to one of his favorite runways in the old Benjamin woods, in clump of low henllocks near d tumbled down wall away on the northern boundary. The day was cold and a fine snow was sitting down through the bare branches It was Thanksgiving day in 1S86. Old 1 Spot. belonging to James Hopkins, an other Jewett City hunter started the i fox at the same time the boat train was leaving the Jewat City station, 6 a. m.. MT Bli9en shot the fox just as ! the sarly dusk was making it too dark
 to make out objects with any sort Of | certainty.
 Both boys live in Jewett. City today. They were 20 years old then. One at least, and it is believed the other, never
 have been fox hunting since.
 1 MT. Read and Mr Bliven the famous l Stone Hill fox hunters. and many others 1 locally of less prowess. have tried .o
 trap foxes but it never amounted Ic
 much. The man. said MT. BIiyen, who l by virtue of his own skill in fair field, catches MT. Reynard in a steel I trap or any other kind of trap, has 1 accomplished a feat of which he niay | well be proud.
 Skunlls and musk-rats, of which | there plenty in Griswold. are easy mon ey with any sort of trap, but not Mir. Fox. | + All ojoo,,+ ora,- ss,+ . 1. ~
 leave plenty of evidence of his con tempt of the most carefully laid plan sc i catch him. Mr Reads many stories oi ! his hunting experiences, telling of the l fox as wall walker. a brook wader l and back trail runner. have held the attention of audiences in other days.
