Barnes Road master of the Fon Day evening next in the civic committee room. Is possible before the Herd would become alarmed. This near approach was absolute y necessary in order that the horses would not be out of wind before the game was reached. The horses were always As eager As the men and frantic or the race each Baring to be held in by main strength. At length when the buffaloes commenced to move the uneasiness would increase and As the Herd started the would shout not then away a moment every horse would Spring Forward with the wildest impetuosity. All had to Start for no Lorae could be restrained bridle s were Lee go guns were brought into position and the wild cavalry bore Down on the Fly Iii Herd. After the first shots had been delivered the Buffalo Hunter loaded his gun while Lis horse was at full Speed tha gun was first pruned and the pan drawn Back to its place then a Quantity of powder was transferred from the hand to the run barrel and the Bullet permitted to Roll Jown. In firing care was taken not to raise the breach higher than the muzzle lest the Ball should Roll out but As the rider was generally Only a few feet from the animal that he wished to shoot there was no necessity to raise the gun to the shoulder and the Buffalo was usually As High As the Horte. Sometimes a single Hunter would shoot four or five Buffa Loes during a single Chase made on a Good Herd. The larger the drove the better Chance there was for the Hunter As the animals in Advance in some degree retard the Progress of those in the rear where the attack was taking place. Cows and Young bulls were the animals mostly sought for in the fall of the year. Calves and old bulls were not killed unless by Accident or when game was scarce. The fat on the Back of a Good Buffalo was two or three inches thick and of delicious flavor. On the Occa Sion of the great Hunt eight Hundred carts were loaded with Pemmican tongues and Choice pieces of meat and the skins of Buffalo. When a Hunter had dropped a Buffalo at some distance from his companions or from the Camp the horse was tied to the head of the animal and generally continued to move in a Circle watching lest an enemy should a approach while its master had his attention engaged in skinning the beast that had been captured. Twelve or fifteen years ago Many of these old Buffalo Hunting horses had been purchased by the White settlers who were then commencing to occupy the country and it waa amusing to notice with what horror and excitement one of these experienced animals would get the scent of an Indian. During the continuance of the great Hunt which lasted Many weeks the food of the Hunters was meat and nothing else the Only change was in the Man Ner of cooking. The next season the Buffalo herds had moved far to the West and never again returned in such numbers so near the red River and pvn yet the wandering people of the Plains look upon the loss of their but Falos As the greatest calamity that Ever Bezel.
