Ross Francis and Preston Mor

the birds out of the area, the

bush. They saw three wolves in
the area. One stopped on a knoll
for a minute and Ross Francis
brought him down with a rifle.
The county offers a $25 bounty
for the carcass and Ashfield
township offers an additional
$15, so the boys had a profitable
day.. They were able to get their
allotment of ducks besides.
Monday, when the men went
back they found a posse of local
residents out looking for the
other two wolves.
