Knox Man Killed White Deer In Wisconsin North Woods.

Starke County Republican. Abner Hay, the veteran hunter and fisherman, often referred to in these columns as “The Old Scout,” reached Knox Friday noon from the north woods where he had spent the summer and fall. On the first day of the hunting season in Wisconsin Mr. Hay killed his deer within fifteen minutes after the season opened, which was at sunrise on the morning of Nov. 10th. The deer was a fine large buck, and almost entirely white. At first sight Mr; Hay thought it was a sheep, but upon nearer approach it proved to be a fine buck. The head is being mounted and in due time will adorn the lodge room in the Hay house at Bass lake. Mr. Hay will spend the winter with his son, Frank, at the lake. .
