Excerpt from With Ethan Allen at TiconderogaEnoch raised his heavy ri¿e, resting the barrel against the tree trunk, and drew bead at the doe's side. He was chancing a long shot, rather than taking the risk of approach ing any nearer to the animals. He had seen that the doe was suspicious and she might be off in a ¿ash into the thicker forest beyond unless he fired at once. Had he been more experienced he would have wondered what had made the creature suspicious, his own approach to the lick being quite evidently undiscovered. But he thought only of get ting a perfect sight and that the larder at home was empty. And this last fact was sufficient to make the boy's aim certain, his principal care being to waste no powder and to bring down his game with as little loss of time as might be.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
