Who also did some prospecting. He told us about how he would not go from his cabin to the Outhouse without his 44 on his hip. When asked if that was to shoot any bear he might encounter his reply was, "Nyah, all this little thing is going to do is piss the bear off. I keep it handy so I can put it in my mouth, pull the trigger and save the bear a little time and me a whole lot of pain."
