This
was
all
I
saw,
and
it
seemed
little;
but
before
many
days
had
passed
I
knew
surely
that
I
had
been
favored
with
a
view,
in
broad
daylight,
of
a
rare
and
wonderful
creature,
none
less
than
the
Winnipeg
Wolf.
His
was
a
strange
history--a
Wolf
that
preferred
the
city
to
the
country,
that
passed
by
the
Sheep
to
kill
the
Dogs,
and
that
always
hunted
alone.
In
telling
the
story
of
le
Garou,
as
he
was
called
by
some,
although
I
speak
of
these
things
as
locally
familiar,
it
is
very
sure
that
to
many
citizens
of
the
town
they
were
quite
unknown.
The
smug
shopkeeper
on
the
main
street
had
scarcely
heard
of
him
until
the
day
after
the
final
scene
at
the
slaughter-house,
when
his
great
carcass
was
carried
to
Hine's
taxidermist
shop
and
there
mounted,
to
be
exhibited
later
at
the
Chicago
World's
Fair,
and
to
be
destroyed,
alas!
in
the
fire
that
reduced
the
Mulvey
Grammar
School
to
ashes
in
1896.
