pass george was the second of the four jat this vjwrlt he epent four years was a stirring lad full of boyishj t and with an inborn love for the outside world when school wfii over for the day the chores done george was happy he would slip out of the back door which opened on barbers commons doing every thing that a normally healthy boy loves to do or he would cross the road and enter thompson s bush pick beechnuts or perhaps drop down the west branch and fish or swim but his greatest delight was the asession and use of an antiquatetf gun barrel this he would fill with u charge of powder and shot if he coald get it if not stones and gravel served as well priming the touch hole hewould set it off after retir ng to a safe distance and groat would be the resultant explosion nor did he always come out acratchless more than once did he have his face blackened not to speak of the time when he was struck by the recoiling barrel lfter when he had a real gun he roamed the woods about georgetown and woe to the squirrel groundhog weasel or other game that crossed his path can you wonder that such a bov would not be content with a small not larger fields called him he wanted to get into the beg bnsh where he could shoot ime such as deer bear hts undo and aunt were quite in sympathy with his restless for the outside but felt that george was a bit young to go from home not so with george when about thirteen years old he packed his few things the old gun barrel among them in an old carpet bag and quietly disappeared ran away in fact and only one who has been in his fix wql not be surprised at his nctmn i mean any red blooded boy bat he waa not destined to go far hut older brother austin knew fairly well where to find him and find him he did in guelph and george had to
