For *everal yean prior to 1880 farmer* beard at night, coming np from the •wampa of "Injun Ornery," tbe cry of . name kind ol a wild beast of (be forest t —a cry that was atari I log. and unlike any. 1 thing else ever beard in tbeae native Jungle*. It partook of tbe nature of a r and Judging from description* 1 given by old hunter* sod menagerie men. I *be creduioug people cstpe ta tlx ramclu. •ion that panthers were occupying tbe 1 woods that grew at our very door. About ■ tbta time tlie writer', oncle, Mr. Charles I Button, driving borne from a neighboring 1 villsgr, and while psasiog through a strip : of woods just beyond tbe county line dividing Cape Msy aod Cumberland, was suddenly startled by tbe scream of an animal a few feet from tbe roadside. Hta own bair stood on end. and his bone* alarmed and ran. The beast fol. lowed screaming some distance, until left far in tbe rear, and tbe train Iteaaroe quieted down to submission. Tlie same bowls being beard ia ibe and Beraley't Point neighand track* seen that were pronounced lbo*e of 1 pant her. a hunting party wu organized and an effort made to bring tbe animal to bay, but tbe dog* seemed lo ecent danger u tbey snuffed tbe trail and showed such symptom* of alarm that tbe boot bad to be abandoned. it wu about three year* ago that Cotton, a batcher, of well-known veracity, encountered an animal, wbicb sprang out after bit wagon u be wu driving through tbe woods from Seaville to I'cteraburgb. He threw .out pieces of meat u be whipped up bta bocae. wbicb devoured inatanter. He called It a panther, and to tbta day be bu not changed bta opinion.
