He says: ly i posiiively -assure you that this gorilla, or wild man, or whatever you choose to call it,- {is no mythl I know that it exists, and that ���������there are at least two of tbem, having seen them both at once, not a year ago. Tbeir existence has been reported at'timec for the past twenrty years, and I have heard it .said- that in early days an orang-outang escaped 'from a ship, on the southern coast;. but tbe; ���������'creature I have seen is not that animal, and if rit is, where did he get&ts mate ?���������import her ras'the Web -foots did their wives ? Last fall I was hunting iu tbe mountains about 20 miles :- south' of here, and camped five or six days in ��������� one place, as I have done every season for y the past fifteen years. Several times I re- Uiroed to my earap, after a hunt, and saw -that the ashes and charred sticks from the fire vplace bad been scattered about. An old Shunter notices sucb things, and very soon gete ' 'curious to know the cause. Although mjr. ...;' ^bedding and traps and little stores were not ; Vdisturhea, that'I.co^d see, I was anxious to ��������� -learn-what or who it was that so regularly ���������visited my camp, for clearly the half^bumedl .^sticks and -cinders could not scatter them-, ��������� 'selves about. I saw no tracks near tbeoamp, "'^as tho bard-ground, covereflwitb dry leaves,. ' ^vould show none; So I started on a circle -round the'place, and threeYhtindred yards off, f; Jndeep sand, Lstrnck tbe track of a. man's feet, as I supposed, bare and of immense size^ /Sow I was/curious, sure, and resolved to lay . for this barefooted visitor. I accordingly ^tooW a* position on a bill side,, some sixty or j>������eventy.yards from.the fire, and securely bid /'in tho brush, I waited and watched. Twoi hours or more I set there, and wondered if* i the owner of the bare feet would comeagafn, .and whether he imagined what an in'terest he had created in my. inquiringmmd, and, finally, What ^possessed him to. be. prowling: about there with no shoes on. The fire-place was ��������� on my rigft and, the ^spot v^here I saw the ��������� tracks'was *cin my left,s hi d by bushes..; It was 'in this direction^^^that my attention jvas mostly d i rected, th inking the v isi tor would ap p ear tjbere, and, besides, it was easier to sit and ifaoe that way. Suddenly I was startled by a shrill;thistle, such as boys produce with two /fingera under their tongue, and . turning ��������� *quickly^ I ejaculated," Good God S" as I Baw the object of my solicitude standing beside *aiy ��������� frrej Verecfc,'��������� and look'iag *sg8 piciously ������������������'['-. arqti n Q.

The whole was covered wifti dark brown and i .cinnamon colored hair, quite long on some y parts, that on the head standing in a shock and growing1 close down to the eyes, 'like a Digger Indian's. As I looked, he threw his head back and wiaistled again, and then -stoopod and grasped a stick from the fire. This he swung round and round, until the fire on the end had gone out, when,. he repeated the manccuver. I was dumb, almost, and could'Only look, fifteen minutes I sat aud watched him, as he whistled and scattered my lire about.
