Upon trying to reach camp I became lost and took refuge for the night in a small cave near Grandfather mountain. The cave was dry and com fortable, ami making a pillow of my coat I soon fell asleep. The next morn ing I was awakened by something pull ing at the coat, and opening my eyes saw that it was a cub bear. “ A few feet distant was a large bear sitting on its haunches and another cub playing around her. I had no weapon of any kind and was completely at the mercy of the animal, but she was not in the humor to dispose o f me just then. .She sat watching the cub as it pulled at my coat, and I was careful to make no motions that might be considered as hos tile. For two or three hours we looked at each other, and then the mother bear ambled off with her tw o cubs, and I beat a hasty retreat.” —St. Louis Globe-Dem ocrat. A Pleasant Man to In te rv ie w .
