John Vance, of Bear Creek, was going upthe canon ho came across a grizzly bear.— Upon approaching within a few yards, he fired, when'the bear fell. Not being well acquainted with the nature _of bears, young Vancejadvanced for the purpose of disliatching him, . but' the bear, quietly ftivaiting his approach, arose on his hind legs' and struck the gun from his hands at the moment ho was about to fire. The bear immediate ly gave another blow, and tore open the flesh above Vance's right eye, - Cutting two severe gashes and tearing the flesh from the bone. One nail of the bear at the-same time caught the nasal bone at its root, and tore a. portion of it, away, and passing along, tore out the loft eye. The bear then commenced hugging, = at the same time chewing and lacerating him. in a fearful manner. He dislocat ed his wrist, broke his• fore 'arm, and tore the flesh from both hands. He also bit his knee severely, and cut a frightful gash across the fleshy por , tion of- the limb above, bit through the I fleshy - part•below the knee, and tore both limbS from the knee down to- the ankle * , and laid down on 'the young maxi.
