Snook was out hunting alone and sighting the animal fired two shots. The deer fell, and thinking It was dead, Snook ran up to his prize. To his surprise the apparently dead animal ani-mal jumped up and rushed at him viciously. vi-ciously. Before he could protect himself Snook was knocked down and trampled Into insensibility. He finally final-ly recovered and upon staggering to his feet, discovered the deer lying ba dead not more than 200 yards away. (Ml Snook 'sustained a fracture of two ribs by being struck by the deer's horns when be was first thrown to the ground. In addition he was consider- ably bruised by the animal's hoofs.
