The Excitement of the Bear
A long time ago before we had the sewage lagoon there used to be a
swimming pond where the lagoon is now. There also were a lot of
people who used to swim in the pond.
One day when Moses Shorty was walking home he saw a big Brown bear
ambling close to the pond so he ran home and got his gun without
saying anything to anyone, then he ran back. His parents were
wondering what was going on so they went after him. By now a lot of
other people knew about the bear also, and then all went to hunt for
it too.
Meanwhile, the people who had been swimming in the pond had to go
home through the tundra. The bear wouldn't let them go by the
slough.
The hunters finally caught the bear in the slough by the pond.
While they were hunting the bear there were a lot of spectators
watching from town. After they caught the bear they dragged it down
to the beach. By then practically the whole town of Marshall was
watching as they dumped its big brown carcass into the slowly moving
waters of the Yukon River.
