The writer was evidently not very well up in our geography but his imagination was well de- veloped. - : "We have just received intelli- gence of another terrible bear catastrophe in our Colony of Canada. The sad affair occured in a small village called Toronto, a few Wiles from Winnipeg on- -the main-line of the Union Pacific Railway, and not far from the main station at Hudson's Bay. It appears that a settler named John Shaw, who was president of the Fire, Water. and Gas Club, was on his way home from one of its meetings, and when almost at his own door; a huge grizzly sprang upon him from the adjoin« ing forest. The snow at the time was eight feet deep, and the thermometer 50 below zero, and the unfortunate man being with- out snowshoes and only armed with an ordinary shotgun, was unable to cope with the savage: ,» and consequently was. fearfully mangled. His cries, however, brought to the spot some- half-breeds who lived in the wig- wams near the edge of the Wh od and these, with the help of the- members of the Fire Club, who had also been attracted by the: cries, soon despatched the brute. The beat was found to measure: eighteen feet from snout to iv of tail. The town has since the beginning of winter been over- run with bears, and it is notsafe to venture out at night without a: good rifle and a lantern. The unfortunate settler was carried to the hospital at New York, the- nearest town, and we are glad to. learn that he is doing as well ss; can be expected. -- MARRIED ; At Salem, n, on Sat Joly 29th. 1955 Ms 3 ay {ott to Miss La Veda Marguerite:
