About the Book

Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: 12 HOT CONFLICT. I was nearer to the dogs than my companions; and anxious to benefit by the opportunity, I ran so hurriedly and heedlessly as to fall just as I reached the spot where the fight was going on, and as near as might be upon the lynx himself. My very unexpected presence so surprised the combatants, that the field of battle was forthwith removed, some twenty to thirty paces, to another brake so very dense, that to enable me to see what was going forward, I was necessitated to crawl on my hands and knees. Encouraged by my presence and cheers, the dogs still more furiously beset the lynx, which repelled their often repeated attacks in the most gallant manner. Lying on his back, he with his sharp and cutting claws, struck out in every direction with the rapidity of lightning, dealing wounds on all sides, and in degree at least keeping his enemies at a distance. The beast's head was towards me; but the dogs evinced such an extreme degree of ardour and courage, that for a while I dared not to fire, for fear of hitting one or the other of them. At length, however, in the midst of this hot conflict, one of the dogs, more courageous than the rest, rushed between the hind legs of the lynx with the intention apparently of seizing him by the throat; and as at the same time the beast's breast became exposed to view, I took the opportunity and fired whilst at only four or five paces' distance; and in an instant a period was put to his existence. It was an old and full-grown male. What with the baying of the dogs?our shouts and the deep growling of the lynx, which was distinctly to be heard in the melee? the scene to a sportsman was most interesting. Eleven out of the sixteen dogs were so wounded, that CO O O STEEL-TRAPS. they could not be used any more on that...
