On Wednesday evening of last week, David Wible, tenant on Mrs. Margaret Johnston's farm, near Cito, heard a dog and the pitiful bleating of a deer in Mrs. Johnston's potato patch. Taking his gun, Mr. Wible ran to where the deer, a spike buck, was lying. The dog had torn off the deer's tail and was otherwise mutilating the animal. Mr. Wible fired a shot at the dog as it ran off. The deer could not rise, and as Mr. Wible did not care to end its mis ery by killing it, probably for fear of the law, he left it lie. Next morning he saw the dog beside the dead body of the deer which was then badly torn up. He fired two more shots at the dog as it ran away, but failed to kill it No one seemed to know whose dog it was. It was de scribed to us as resembling a red Irish setter. The deer had a mark across the front of its head that might have been made by a wire which the animal may have struck in attempting to jump over a fence. Wanted, For Sale, For Rent, Lost, Found, Etc.
