Description
Excerpt from The Life and Adventures of Nat Foster: Trapper and Hunter of the Adirondacks
Even in the daytime some wild animals at tacked the domestic ones, ii they wandered far into the woods. The pigs were never permitted to go into the woods in the fall to root for acorns, without being accompanied by a man with a gun, to shoot auv bear which might wish to change its diet from wild berries to fresh pork.
The New England Colonies early began offer ing bounties for''the slaughter of these wild animals, and the pine-tree shilling was a welcome reward to the struggling frontiersmen, in their contest with the wild beasts of the wilderness they were trying to subdue.
