Then there is the wabergoo, another fierce and savage beast, which may be found—if the hunter be bold enough—in the wilds of Loyal Sock Creek. This animal travels at night and therefore it is hard to describe it, but it is said by members of the Neesmuck camping party that the wabergoo is an animal some ten feet long, with horns, cloven feet and a head resembling a bulldog. No human being has ever shot a wabergoo, and that they are ferocious is certain, as they have been known to eat it good-sized calf in one night.
These two beasts are a menace to all hunters, hence city chaps who contemplate a trip into the above regins will do well to go prepared for trouble.
