I think he just .come out of den. He look rough, tough and mean. First I have fun watching him, then I think better look out. Grizzly like woman, can't tell what she going to do. "I look around but no tree to hold me up. Heavy bush one side, deep cold water other side, I just think, maybe better back track, but I'm too late, I hear big WOOF, then that bear reared and roared. I know right away he smell me, then he look arid see me. We stand there looking each one over, I can't run because I don't like claws in my back. "It was his move, and he not long making it, but the worst thing was he came toward me. I could only stand my ground. He came on, first on all fours, then he raise up like man, all the time snorting and grunting. There was a little wind come down the river, on my face it seem some- times very hot and sometimes very cold, I had just one chance but it made me brave, my old .22 single shot gun was under my arm and there was a .22 Longin my barrel. I knew there is only one cent's worth of lead and powder between me and the next place I am to go. "He's very brave bear, he never stops coming. At 25 feet he stood up and faced me, but I didn't shoot, for I made my mind to wait till he cross- ed a stick laying about 12 feet from me. As he stood there glaring at me with the juice running off his big dirty teeth, I decided I did not like any part of him, even his eyes looked like bad business. "He came close to my stick, crawl- ing now, almost on belly, he'd rip up big rock, look like he want to get good foothold to jump. I see his big claw and I know just one little slap and my insides going to be on ground. "Now he come to stick, I not scared now, I aim high between the eyes and • I pull trigger. He never move, he just let go and quiver. Then I run, and fast, I can't go any further. I stop and look, and he's in same place. Then I walk pretty slow back and find he's very dead, I feel better now but pretty tired, so I go back to camp and rest," The .22 Long cartridge in Little Dave"s rifle is widely used by Indians in that district, and the crucial cart- ridge was probably intended for a muskrat. The odds were heavily stacked against such a small bullet penertating the vital area in the bear's head, and Little Dave's good fortune appears to have been as re- markable as was his marksmanship.
