I could bring one tumbling down from the highest tree. I never wasted powder and lead, L2 126 SKETCHES AND ECCENTRICITIES OF when I wanted one of the creatures. Well, as I was walking out one night, a few hundred yards from my house, looking carelessly about me, I saw a 'coon planted upon one of the highest limbs of an old tree. The night was very moomj and clear, and old Ratler was with me ; but Ratler won't bark at a 'coon — he's a queer dog in that way. So, I thought I'd bring the lark down,... in the usual way, by a grin. I set myself — and, after grinning at the 'coon a reasonable time, found that he did n't come down. I wondered what was the reason — and I took another steady grin at him. Still he was there. It made me a little mad ; so I felt round and got an old limb about five feet long — and, planting one end upon the ground, I placed my chin upon the other, and took a Test. I then grinned my best for about five minutes — but the cursed 'coon hung on. So, finding I could not bring him down by grinning, I determined to have him — for I thought he must be a droll chap.
