Thursday night, just after midnight,
James Lee a farmer living a short dis
tance north of Rock Bluffs heard his
f'dogs barking furiously as thoughgreatly
excited. He dressed himself and took
his trusty ride in bis hand and went to
see what the trouble was.
Near the carcass of a dead horse ly

ing were encouraged to charge on the
wolf which started off at "a good gallop.
It had not gone far until it wheeled
and came at' the dogs savagely. The
attack caused the dogs to retreat to
the house. Mr. Lee was behind a crib
and not observed by the wolf when it
stopped. The moon shining on the
snow made the night almost as light as
day, and Mr. Lee leveled his rifle at
the brute and fired, to his surprise the
animal dropped in its tracks. It was
one of the large grey species and stood
about three feet tall. Mr. Lee says
quite a number have been sighted in
that vicinity this winter and it is re
greted that there is no bounty on kill
ing them. , -
