Mr. Collins is a musician and at 7 o&#8217;clock left his home at Moore&#8217;s Harbor to go to a dance. When about halfway he saw a dark object by the side of the road, which he at first mistook for a rock.<\/p>\n<p>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 He saw the gleam of a pair of eyes, and at the same moment the dark object came toward him with a rush, and he saw by the light of the lantern which he carried that his assailant was a buck deer. The buck ran his head over Mr. Collins&#8217; right arm, and the lantern was entangled in his horns.<\/p>\n<p>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 In his other hand Collins carried his cornet and, taken at a disadvantage, was hurled to the grounnd and injured. He extricated himself in a few moments, when the buck changed his tactics and, with the lighted lantern still attached to his horns, disappeared in the forest.<\/p>\n<p>\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 Mr. Collins, bruised and bleeding, arrived late at the dance and told his story. Deer are still protected on Isle an Haut, but there will be a strong petition sent to the next legislature to extend the killing time.<\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meets Maine Youth on Forest Road and Hooks His Lamp. \u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0 James Collins of Isle an Haut, Me., had a thrilling experience with a deer on a recent evening.
