appeared during tb summer time, but
this winter it returned In a mor serious - -form,
attacking th animal's heart aad 1
resulting in hla death. -j
During the year 1000. while Sheriff '
Sutherland was serving his former term,
he obtained two thoroughbred southern '
bloodhounds from ths Michigan tut re- .
formate ry. Th"mal dog was Hunter."
He was of tb Perry Clark strata and ' '
waa himself trained by Perry. Clark.

When Hunter was leas than years '
old b performed' a feat la 'tracking
that mad him a fanfous dog. He -was ,
placed on th trail of a fleeing crlnil- '

After a few minutes' delay On the bank,
with a loud bay, th keen-scented ani

he had secured a horee, aad mounted en '

t unities to demonstrate his ability.. One v;
he was taken over to St Maries to seek (.
some trac of a loat child. Although 4
th trail waa old, th animal followed it
without .difficulty . to the river. - Th

that th child had been drowned,, which -proved
to be true eight month after- -ward,
