On the afternoon I caught a brown murcolored & meased in scat trap, The Spacking & saddle animal are equally cheap. The hoods cost 30 to 40 cents each a day + saddle animals the same. I went again hunting but the dogs were tired & refused to work no anything was secured. 21 Wed another red letter day. I went as usual hunting with the dogs & dragged a fine B & 2 g poral. He also saw a white deer which the red dog chased across a wide meadow but could not get after near fit for shooting so lost the only chance we have had. The B gonal be shot than the beat as it cut on a cliff & the shock caused it to leap straight as still legged & fall to the bottom of the cliff. The g he found asleep on a cliff ledge within sun. I got another new shown a black large headed form like a species of Pachyura or croidura, trapped Sork x Sory mated murcolbus also. Day cloudy + windy.
