Because brave American woodsmen can readily conquer the monarch of the American forest; and because the chicken-hearted Afric son, or dweller, trembles before the steady glare of the Afric King of Beasts, ergo his bearship must in popular opinion, play subordinate to his lionship.
"It is too bad that our outing must soon come to an end," said the leader of the Gun Club. "But as we have had a glorious time I suppose we ought not to complain." "I saw some silver tail foxes at the ridge to-day," said Shep. "I think we ought to go after them." "And after that bear," put in Whopper. "We don't want to go home until we lay low his bearship."
So he makes a virtue of necessity, and rows his bearship to the shore. In the early part of the settlement of this country, an expedition was sent to explore a part of the territory now called Missouri. Bears were found there, at that time, in great abundance, and of very large size.
"'Back! back! yelled the natives; at the same moment a savage shaggy head protruded from the den, and with angry growls, made for the nearest native. Every one of us, in our haste to clear the way for his bearship, tumbled over each other until he was in a fair way to have us all in a heap to devour at leisure. "'Pretty doings this, with our backs to the game! face round every one of you.
He took his position, and watching his chance, fired. "How's that?" he asked, after the report had died away. "Hit his bearship in the left ear," announced Dave. "Humph! I aimed for his right eye!" The senator's son now tried his luck and managed to hit the representation of a bear in the tail. This made all the lads laugh, and Roger and Phil called on Dave to show his skill.
You, sir," turning to the superior animal "are, as he has accurately observed, a rabbit. And you" to the other "are correctly described as a jackass. In transposing your names man has acted with incredible folly." They were so pleased with the decision that they declared the Coyote their candidate for the Grizzly Bearship; but whether he ever obtained the office history does not relate.
On the shore around the place I saw a small bear track, but I did not have time to look for his bearship, and left, with the game already killed, and passed on down through this beautiful valley. We saw one place where a large band of horses had crossed, and as the men with them must have had a raft, we were pretty sure that the men in charge of them were white men.
"Maybe it is our bear!" cried Giant enthusiastically. "Gracious, I didn't know we owned a bear," answered Shep. "Well, Shep, you know well enough what I mean." "Come on after his bearship!" cried Whopper. "We'll blow him into a million pieces and then take him home as a trophy of our skill."
We'll set it so that it will look as if his bearship was trying to climb the tree." "It's rather close to the back road," protested Dave. "We might hit somebody." "Oh, hardly anybody uses that road, so the stableman told me," answered Roger. "Besides, we can watch out. One always wants to be careful when shooting, at a target or otherwise."
The whole party now advanced with rifles poised, ready to give the coup de gráce to his bearship; when, with a thundering growl, another "grizzly" came shambling swiftly out from the bushes, and made directly for François. Before the party recovered from their surprise at this new appearance on the scene, the brute reared up and seized François by the leg, which he crunched and shattered.
