How the Dogs Turned Out. WASHINGTON, Dec 9. Mr, Claude Hester, Pickens, S C Dear Claude:-I have been want ing to writNyou for some time to tell you how the dogs turntd out. I. did not get a chance to work them much until just before leaving Charleston, and therefore could not do so. About a week before leaving, Mr. Harris aud myself took two hunts, and be tween u.? killed five deer I buu'ed the dogs at my home place for fix. end they tread an enormous coo'n weigbing 22 pounds . I had a negr" to throw him out of the tree, and we had another chame, but . they soojn overtook him, and we had a great "coon" fight. The first day we went out hunting deer; we hunted with another pock of hounds, so as to teach the doga. This time we re ma1ind two days. My doies were all lame, their feet being cut with oyster shella trailing coons at nEy home over oyster shell banks, but it would have done your heart good to see them tbe lirst day out, They did not seemi to know much about the matter, and the men who owned the pack of hounda laughed sat them and said they were rabhit dogs That afteirnoon', however, we killed a doe, and they i ot a taste of the dleer blood and ment, and the next morning went Immediately t - work--one of them the lit tio spotted dog, wvho got. awvay the morning I shipped them from Picke,:s, and wie brought ba~ct in the buggy by you was very lame; in~ fs~ct, thei wagon had run over one of his feet, and he was going on three legs, could not put his fouiath leg to the grunsid at all. I did not think he was fit to hunt, but after we had b-on o~ut about an hour I hetard thet entire pumnk comning to me in full cry. AMI at once a splerndid buck came dartong t~brough the canebrakH with the pack about 100 yards behind him. He wheeled s he saw me and ran broadside in front of me. I had to shoot him three time.s before he fell. As he fell the pack of dogs wheeled into the opening and turned nu the trail just where the deer had tul ned, and to my astonishment my little spotted dog on three legs vas leading the pack by about ten feet, and you could have put a blanket over the rest of the nose. lie kept the lead, straonge to say, and was the first (log to put his mouth on the <leer; and when I got up to cut the deer'd throat he was plunging about a nme and he throw the little fellow off, and he went and laid down as if he bad done his duty and was sat i6fl-d. A little later on they jumped a deer, and the deer and dogs all got out of the drive, and kept running for about two hours. They must have gone for miles, but finally the drivers drove the deer back and brought him within 100 yards of our wagon-too far to shoot, but near enough to see the deer and the doge, My other spotted dog, the first one you bought, was about 100 yards be hind the deer, and at least a quarter of a mile ahead of the big dog "Quit,'' and the little three-legged dog, and the rest of the pack had given out entirely, so we had the laugh on the other fllows. The next tiue we went out we hunted them by themselves, with one old dog, and we killed three deer, In the two spotted dogs and the black dog "Qait" I think I have three as good deer dogs as can be found in the state. On our last hunt "Quit" was always the first dog to jump, and he sticks to a trail like a bloodhound. Rememoer me to all my friends, and with kindest regards to your homefolks and yourself, I am Sincerely yours, GOo S. LEGARE, Watterson on Prohibition.
