fine day. as they were paddling slowly
down nircalli. a deer sprang mil front
the bank of the river and approached
the canoe. She threatened to over»
turn the frail canoe and no the men
tried to frighten the animal with their
paddles. This seemed to make her
more bold and sin- swam nearer the
canoe. finally reaching its side. When
she, began to climb over the side, it
was time for sonic decided action to
take place, and with a knife. the only
\vcapon in the boat. shc was attacked,
with such success that the first thrust
reached the heart.
When the animal gave its last kick,
it 'as made last to the canoe and low-
(‘t to shore. where the antlers Were re.
moved. The decr's weight was cati-
tnaicil at about 310 pounds and was a
beauty. 'l‘hey were very sorry to have
killed the animal. but so enraged was
the that bad they not killed her or
gotten out of the way they both would
probably have lost their lives. The
antlers are attracting much attention.
