Me an' the old man' son Jim struck out one uiornin' to fix up a iWre of fence th cattle had be-n lirtakin through. Wed none uhoiu u utile, wln-n the ramh dojis, that had been tannin' "lonK. lit..!. it ftn around suspicious like, the pa'r i uimii' along their backs, when all of a sudden - hoo! woo! off they wi ni in a liuneh. In a minute or t w. o the yoldarndest racket 1 ever he id broke out fn the Limber across the i ri k on a low oak nde. "We warn t !o:itf paeAin what the dons were alter: the yowls and hi.-sea miwd up with the yelliu" and ki.u'n told us that they were after nu old cougar eat an' probably r rappin" v. ith him on the mound. Sometimes the old he's won't tree, an' when wp slipped up. cautious like, we see Mandin' in a thick Hump of smail oak grubs the highest routMr I ever set cyt-s on. He was hacked up anion the trees an' the four dotrs danJ 'round in front of him niakin' an i.iiernal racket but bein' nightly careful not to Kit too close to his teeth an' claws. Neither of us had brought a shoot in' iron along that mornin' but. as soon as 1 see the lay of the land. I whispered to Joe, 'we can pet that varmint, yun or no kuii; look at that old tail of hts'n stiikin' out be tween litem little trees. We'll sneak up thore behind him and I'll srali his tall an" git him foul somehow or oilier till you can knife him.' "My partner was a little mite dubious about the idee, but finally lna.le up his imiid to help me in try in' conclusions with Mr . Conga.. The wind favorin' us we crawled up tui'able close, and then see that we'd t-"kled ;n alfired ticklish job. The cougar was mad clear thruimh, an' tiie way he spit an' swatted at them tUts remim'ed me of a hi bristlin' torn cat for all the world.

I sie that. 1 told him that it' he wa:i skeery about closni' in and ii-bbip' him in some vital spot, to hamstring him. and then we could finish him somehow or other. "So. he out with his knife an' crep' towards the cat. the varmint trying his best to reach around an' claw him; he was gettin" more ner vous and shaky nil the time. Kin ally, he made a big swipe with the kni:i'f;ind socked the blade down not on the tendon he wa aim in at h t in hi.; own foot, strikin' it ir til Ul.-'l' p.
