On one occasion, In company with my brother, I had gone to the woods and was there to wait for a farmer, nt whose house wo had stopped over nilit, and who was to come on later with fox hounds, for we were to try for reynard that day. We had got out of the road, which ran through the forest, nnd over a rail fence, and were standing under larire hemlock, when we heard a milled grouse in the distance. He camo direct ly toward us, and alighted on the ground about forty feet awuy. Thero was a small gully or water course Detweeti us and the bird. Before he struck the ground he had taken about two-thirds of a circle to break his lightning like Might. - As soon ns he lit he straightened up and took a survey. He soon saw us, but Instead of again flying he swelled up in a most pompous manner. Never hud I seen a grous appear larger or more magnificent. My brother looked at me and I suggested that he snap u cap at blip, Neither of our muzzle loaders was charged' At the sound o. the first cap the grouse slightly shook himselt, lint seemed to swell his breast out more, Mydirother continued taking caps from his pocket and snapping them nt the grouse; bringing liis gnu up each time and taking deliberate aim 'until nine were exploded.' The grouse seemed to like the sound and to be fascinated by it and the scene generally.
