I killed two Sciurus today along an
accustomed path of mine. They attracted
my attention by their barking & scurrying
about in a tree near the trail & it
was a matter of but a few minutes to
secure them! I had been going over
the same trail both morning and evening
for the last ten days and I had not
ever hear them before so they must be
quite extensive traveler. Mr. Garrett &
Kitans, our packers come today so we
shall leave tomorrow instead of the
day after tomorrow, as planned.
