Cattle owner asks for replacement

To The Eagle:

To whoever accidentally shot and killed the Black Angus bred heifer along Foster Road near Longtain Rd.:

Accidents can happen, granted. However, the loss of that animal set back the increase of our herd by a year and we lose the value of the heifer as well as the unborn calf she was carrying and other calves in the future.

Please either replace her with a bred heifer or a cow calf pair or pay $1200 to reimburse us for the loss.

If you wish to remain anonymous, arrange for the replacement via Stanley Farms, Don Wages or anyone else you choose and have them deliver it.

If you wish to pay for the animal put the cash in an envelope and hand it to Maria in her restaurant. Or give it to myself or Gordie Souvenir.
