MOOSE \/S CIVILIZATION
Fo small amount of excitement was
created in Fulmer, this week when it
was discovered that a 2 year ojd
bull moose had fallen into an Open
grave at the cemetery. Trie new
grave had been opened just the day
before and sometime during the
night the moose had apparently
stumb&ed into it.
Russell Row, the Hartley brothers,
I.I'.Sardvik, bill Bouwens c-.nd Hol
ger Larsen lifted the moose from
the pit by the use of ropes. He
was uninjured and simply gallopped
off when released.
