FEDKBAI Powr October 90Several years ago ih 1888
a party of three young who were
Suiting relativesIn of theState decided one bright 4 iober day
that they would go on a hunt ft r deerand other game In swamp
that borders Deep Creak Their namwwero Joseph Strong William
James Hljate They etarted out earnin the morning intending a
day of they said and In duo
time they reached the borders of thedark and dismal swamp who theirsport was to begin The daf was perfeet with a bright Sunlight and a llghUbalmy breezo blurting from the northThe birds singing and flitting
among the green foliage of the douse
trees while the saucy squirrels were
jumping from limb to limb chatteringand scolding the Intruders to theirrlgbtfu domain Underneath was thedamp oozey mud of the swamp withits growth of cypress knees under-brush old halt decayed logs andrunsof muddy slimy water that made loco-
motion extremelythaz rdous and dimcult Hugo serpents would now andthen rear up their heads and hissingloudly crawl awaylo some hole orhollow log
The young wee were not to be dcerred from their sport bv any such
instructions or scenes but Boparaton their way They
continued thelr hunt with yarylngatoiess until nrly tall when
ue an to think of homeJolepH Strong had become widely
ep mld from Ills companions bohad penetrated the swamp deeperthan hl companions and as the darkn w began tp Kalhef about him hefound himself entangled In an almostimpenetrable Thicket ofbriars and While he wasplcklni his stow wav through thethicket he was suddenly startled by
the low deep growl of a monstrous she
bear To retreat was Impossible andthing to do was to stand his
ground and tight it out He quickly
his muzzletIred in an instant with a deep horridgrowl and snarl the wounded bearIf any of your correspondents can
complete I wish they wouldas I dont want to kill that fellow
Joseph and cant see how togot him out of that spot alive
One fellow has remarked that howas trod of all this stuff that yourcorrespondents had been writing and
