organize a hunting party Soon a band of men and boys armed with shot guns pitch forks rakes shovels and sticks and one man with a began to beat the brushes around at last in an open space caught sight of the panther The beast was evidently very much afraid for it was dark and the pursuers carried lanterns as well as the miscellaneous ment of agricultural implements The animal turned suddenly and charged directly at his pursuers The main of hunters scattered in every direction but Spears and his son and another man named Clarke Joslin stood their ground As the panther came on Joslin advanced to meet It and as the creature made no move to spring Spears and his son advanced one on either side to aid A Joslin was the man with the net and when he was close enough he threw this over the panther and then threw himself upon the net The other two coming up boldly at this point the panther was cured and Joslin and the two Spears fell into an argument as to who had actually captured the animal This was a matter of some importance on account of the re- ward been offered In the end they together took the beast in the net and carried it to road house where as the creature seemed fully Inclined they gradually plucked up courage to loosen the net and finally take it off entirely The panther appeared to be as Bauer blocks away alarmed by the crowds of men and women running in the
