its appearance there and was given
chase by large number of the school

chased off the hills by dogs, as it was
about tired out when it struck town.

east of town and ON through the south
part of the village to the school
grounds. Here the Children gave it
chase and ran it into the fence, where
it was caught by some of the boys. 1t
was tied up, offering very little re-

had little vitality remaining. A short

dead, it having evidently expired from
