The brother ran to the wound- ed man and caught him in his before he fell, and carried the young hunter to a mossy -covered section of ground and aid him down An Investigation of the victim's wounds was quickly made and sever- al others of the party ran to the For- rest house, which is not far distant, where they secured a team to take the wounded man to MiMinburg, where the nearest physician is locat- ed.
