finally received a copy of spotted fawn I 1 am glad to reproduce it here SPOTTED FAWN rt it was a hundred years ago when by the woodland way the traveler saw the wild deer drink or crop the boin chen spray beneath a hill whose rocky side oer bowered a grassy mead arid and fenced a cottage from the wind A deer dear was wont to feed she only came when on oil th the e men mead the evening moonlight lay and no man knew the secret haunt in which she walked by day white were her feet her forehead showed a spot of silvery white that seemed to glimmer like a star in autumn night and as theresang here sang the whippoorwill she cropped the sprouting leaves and here her rustling steps were heard of still october eves once in autumns golden time she rang the wild invade and found the pheasant nor the deer and wandered home again next evening shown the waxen moon beside the silvery tooted footed deer there grazed a spotted fawn the cottage dame forbade her son to aim the rifle hero here 1 it I t were a sin she said to harm or fright that friendly deer this spot has been my pleasant home ten peaceful years and more and ever when the moonlight shines she feeds before our door I 1 love to watch her as she feeds feed and think that all Is well whilo while such a gentle creature h haunts s it the place in which we dwell dael L next evening shone the waxen moon as sweetly as before the deer upon the grassy mead was feeding full in sight ile he raised the rifle to his eye and from the cliffs around i A sudden echo shrill and sharp gave back its deadly sound found away into the neighboring wood the startled creature flow flew and cr crimson imson drops of moisture lay amid the glimmering dew next evening shone the waxen moon as sweetly as before the deer upon the grassy mead was seen again no more the red men say that here she walked a thousand years ago they never raised the war whoop here and never swayed the bow at night the red men came and burnt the cottage to the ground and slow slew the youth and dame mall mail it to you 2 about 10 16 arent you dear miss mils brooks brook here I 1 am again bothering you but II 11 I 1 promise that when I 1 write again there wont be so no
