Hemlock Bluffs.  12.55 P.M.

Nov. 30, 1901
Art Rudy and I found the remains of a tragedy this. A Great Horned Owl had taken a [[marginalia]] food [[/marginalia]] Ruffed Grouse from its roost and carried it to a dead arching ironwood and there eaten [[marginalia]] description of place [[/marginalia]] it. The owl had spent the next day sitting in a larger tree near where it had the Grouse as was testified by the numerous droppings. The bird had been killed two night ago probably as the blood was quite fresh. The larger wing feathers with a few smaller ones were all that remained.  The wind had blown the others away.
