But if Stoner meets siiver-tip face to face in the woods and fails to place a solid chunk of lead in « vital spot he may never return. For if allver-tip is nursing a wounded leg his rage against all human kind will be 10 times increased, and he may turn hunter and track the man sent to slay him. “Thin silvertip may have come from Montana, or, as is generally believed, from the Canadian moun- tains,” says Dr, Bach, “Ho is a big, dangerous animal —a« mighty mean brute for a fisherman or a poorly armed hunter to meet in tho woods for he may have a den in the moun. tains.
