KILLS Elk
ON CARTER MOUNTAIN

The lifeless, but still warm car
cass of a bull elk was found on
Carter mountain one day last week
by w. R. Coe of Coe lodge and a
number of his guests who were on
a saddle horse trip from the lodge.
MIR. Coe states that no report of
a rifle was heard by any member
of his party, although the elk was
shot three times. The animal was
found on Carter creek about a mile
and a half above the Darrah saw
mill. An Investigation by Sheriff
Dahlem and Game Warden Kennedy
disclosed no clews as to the iden-
tity of the poacher. A ESPECIAL
rifle bullet was found ear the
dead animal.
Upon finding the elk, Mr.. Coe
Immediately sent word to authori-
ties in Cody, and in the absence
of the game warden, Sheriff Dab
lem went to the place where the
killing occurred and searched for
possible evidence as to the slayer's
identity. Mr. Coe had already prov
ed himself a good woodsman and
hunter by skinning the animal out
with a small pen knife, the only
cutlery available in the party. and
the head was brought to Cody.
Upon the return of Game Warden
Kennedy Sunday. he also made a
trip to the mountain but found
nothing Of value to aid in an ar
rest or prosecution. The head of
the elk, which was a beautiful
specimen, in the velvet, was sold
at public auction on Monday after
o in front of the Post Office,
DR.. R. G. Trueblod purchasing the
prize for fifty dollars.
