the sport very much, but I was an:
ous for September to come when
would be lawful to hunt deer, foi
had never had an opportunity t?? c
velop my power- as a Tim rod. T
family with whom I lived cared not

own a gnn except a small shot g
used for killing birds, but there was
man by the name of Jim Allen w
lived within a half mile of the hou

native of Arkansas, but had livj
some year in (.'(.dorado and had co

game, he owned a 4D-90 Ballard rii
and had promised to take me u
hunting trip as soon as the seas*
opened. It was several miles fro
Soldier to the range that the de

The is- \t morning to our gre;.
discomfort u re it was raining a co<
disagreeable drizzling rain, whic
dampened our ardor some for hum

many places we would have to go t

horses and rode about three milt:
