Rensselaer Gazette, Volume 3, Number 27, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 October 1859 — THE WOLF HUNT. [ARTICLE]

THE WOLF HUNT.

The circular wolf hunt on Beaver Prairie came off last Saturday. But one wolf was caught, although eight wolves and three deers were started up. There was such a misunderstanding as to the manner of proceeding, that better success was out of the question. Another hunt is to come off next Saturday week, which is expected to be a grand affair. Marshals are chosen for the different settlements, who are to take charge of the matter and have the hunt go of!' systematically. Dan’l Ash is the marshal for Morocco; Tlios. Barker, for Pilot Grove; Ephraim Bridgeman, for the north end of Washington township. ' We have not heard the names of the marshals for Meadville and Brook. The line of march is to be taken up at ten o’clock, and all are to make for the center—the Three Lone Trees. A good time is expected by our hunters. r
