The following appeared in Truth in the form of a prose tale of	A
considerable length We have concentrated the essence	B
thereof into the few verses below It is a tale of the	C
Canadian North West during the times of the Hudson	D
Bay Company's rule	E
	-
Two youths employed at the fur fort	F
Resolved to have half day of sport	F
From Jasper House in the far north	G
For game they joyous issued forth	G
The factor of the Hudson Bay	H
Granted them a few hours' play	H
And it was in cold winter time	I
When thick on lake was glassy rime	I
But beneath o'er all their route	J
They saw below big speckled trout	K
With hatchet ice they did clear	L
And the beauteous trout did spear	L
	-
For they were longing for a dish	M
Of this sweet and savory fish	M
And they caught many too with bait	N
For in the day it was not late	N
But it was cloudy with snow storm	I
Yet they saw the noble form	I
While the hurricane did blow	O
Of a fine noble buffalo	O
So they resolved to have a treat	P
Of the delicious buffalo meat	P
But he did on his haunches rear	L
To their surprise it was a bear	Q
	-
The lake being smooth the youths did skate	N
Resolved for to seal his fate	N
A pistol shot made bruin roar	R
And from him trickled drops of gore	R
They round him skate and fresh blood drew	S
When they at him the hatchet threw	S
	-
He chased one and then the other	T
For men on skates did him bother	T
But the bold Scottish lad McBeath	U
Alas he nearly met his death	U
When he so boldly did press near	L
To probe him with the sharp fish spear	L
	-
For with fell swoop the paws of bruin	V
To him they almost did bring ruin	D
But he so dexterously did skate	N
That he escaped such horrid fate	N
And now they skated back to fort	F
For aid for to renew the sport	F
They knew their game was no trifle	W
So they secured a trusty rifle	W
Returning he had fled to wood	X
But they tracked him with his blood	Y
For they did not yet despair	Q
But that they would capture bear	Q
	-
They saw the elder bushes sway	H
While he did force through them his way	H
And heard the brushwood loudly snap	Z
Where he went through he left a gap	Z
They skated swiftly o 'er the ice	A2
And were near brushwood in a trice	A2
Full soon the savage beast is slain	B2
With rifle bullet in his brain	B2
And now these hunters do take pride	C2
In skin as large as buffalo hide	C2
For Indian stripped the skin of bear	Q
And left the carcass in his lair	Q
