Bear Skull No.3. Collected by Windfall
Jackson May 6. 1907.
Jackson and his Squaw went out
in their canoe to hunt bear on the east
side of the Harbor. They discovered a small
bear on the beach. Jackson landed and
sneaked up and succeeded in killing the
bear with 2 shots from his Winchester 30-30.
Suddenly a big bear came out from
the timber and Jackson promptly
made for the canoe. But the squaw
thought that he ought to be made of
sterner stuff so she quickly pushed the
canoe out into deep water regardless
of Jackson cries. During the excitement
the big bear made away back to the
woods.
