w/ibiL,L,A — Tiny Katherine
Coghlan, three-year-old daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Coghlan,
had a near tragic meeting with a
bull moose last week. The inci
dent happened near the Coghlan
home.
Mr. Coghlan and Hubert Saegar
were walking up the Coghlan
driveway, when their dog rushed
at an object on the driveway be
fore them. That object was a bull
moose which promptly charged
the dog. The animal retreated
post-haste toward his owner.
Messrs. Coughlan and Saegar also
retreated post - haste into the
brush beside the driveway.
As they turned to watch the
moose, they discovered that
Kathy had followed them down
the driveway and was toddling
directly into the path of the
charging moose. The little girl
fell as the animal rushed toward
her. Mr. Saegar made a quick
dash into the driveway, seized
the child, and retreated into the
underbrush again.
The moose, unnerved by the
‘first you see the man, now you
don’t act,’ also retreated, and was
seen no more in the Coghlan
driveway.
Let's keep our Valley green this
year. Make sure that cigarette is
out.
