small dug, named Daily, a pretty
Swedish terrier, was following me,
Dally belonged to lI fellow overseer,
by whom ile was 11111011 prized, and in-
deed he was a groat pet whit ih0
whole household. I did not wish hint
to go with 110 on this oceasiyn, how,
ever, for 1 feared that he would scare
the birds, 1 trlud 10 drive him haat
again, but he was not •to be denied;
and so I allowed II1111 to follow.
1 relished the piece cif water and, 0,f•
ter a little stalking, managed to shoat
' two ducks, One of which was only
w01)11ded and fluttered away 801(10
twenty yards, where it floated and
t,tlu€,g1ed.
At that moment Dully jumped info
the water and swam toward the dis-
abled duck, The brave little clog had
reached it and woo returning with it
When llarclay sn,ldenly out:
"Look. bans! A 'gator! Gulag for
Daily!"
Sure enough, about fifty feel away
was 1111 alligator swimming rapidly to-
ward the dog.
"Quit11, Barclay!" I said, "Jump in
and frighten tlo brute away!"
But Barclay objet ted. "No, bass,
I'fraid!" to said resolutely.
There v04 no time to be lost in ar-
gument, 'rho reptile 1414115 approachflig

by the flapping ducts, nearly as large
as himself, was making slow progress.
Dropping m3' gun, I jumped into the

ming. soon reached the dog, a d then,
placing him duck and all, un1101' n

keep 'watch and ward, anti it dawned
upon me that he intended to male a

Poor Daily by now perceived his

attt1eted by. the howling of rho dog.
For the hist time I was thoroughly
scared, and tam ilsh:111(1 to say that
for a moment I entertained lite
thought of flinging Dally to the brutes
and securing my own safety.
