One night last week it eam<e to Mr. Asbury Ogletree’s and tarried off a fine gander. Upon examining the tracks of the aniirjal, it was found to have a track similar to that of a dog, only it had sharp toes, long clav. and set back on its dew claws like a coon. The track is larger than that of an ordinary dog.i. It is said that something on the same order has eaten a lot of geese for Mr. J. R. Ogle tree find others in that neighbor¬ hood- Mr. W. H.
