California Woman's Good Shot
While walking through the woods near Cohasset, Mrs. W. H. Pillsbury of Chico shot a large brown bear that measured six feet from tip to tip. Mr. and Mrs. Pillsbury were walk* ing from their summer home near Cohasset to the “Promontory,” a high point from which an excellent view of the whole valley can be had. Mrs. Pillsbury had a 30-30 carbine. Suddenly she saw a large bear coming down the hill about forty yards away. “It's a bear, shall I shoot it?" she shouted to her husbands Pillsbury answered in the affirmative and his wife asked, “Where shall I shoot him?” “In the head,” came the answer. With deliberate aim the woman fired, bitting the animal square in the right eye, killing him instantly, and the weight of the carcass was estimated at 300 pounds.—-Chico Cor. San Francisco Chronicle.
