SKET. L. 56"

Light English walnut stock. Claimed to have been used in the famous
"Louisiana Tigers." Confederate arms of any sort are rare. With

9. GERMAN WORLD WAR MAUSER RIFLE. L. 49"

7.9 mm Cal. Model of 1898. This rifle saw actual service during the
war and was surrendered to the Allies. Mark, "Danzig, 1917."

10. WINCHESTER RIFLE, MODEL OF 1876. L. 48-1/2"

Cal., .45-75. Weight, loaded, 11-3/4 lbs. Twelve shots. Octagon
barrel. Stock and forearm crudely checkered by some former owner. For
some inscrutable reason, the manufacture of this excellent weapon was
discontinued long ago, but for the sort of hunting to be found in this
State, it is much superior to the later small-bore, high-velocity arms
now sold. Roosevelt carried a rifle of this model and calibre on his
first African expedition and used it on lions with good effect.

11. BALLARD SPORTING RIFLE. L. 46"

Octagon barrel. Rocky Mountain sights. Weight, 9 lbs., Calibre, .32.
This rifle was used by a resident of Eldorado, Pa., for the purpose of
ending his earthly woes. After the suicide, it was left uncleaned for
about three years, with the result that the barrel is somewhat pitted.
Otherwise in good order.

by the British cavalry in the Revolution, the War of 1812 and the
Napoleonic Wars. Three notches cut in the stock.

15. ENGLISH FLINTLOCK PISTOL. L. 14-1/2"

curious assortment of marks. On the lockplate: "W. Ketland & Co." On
the barrel: "London", a Belgian proof-mark, and a half-obliterated
engraved mark; "Cur---- & Bav----, Market St., Philadelphia." This
pistol was made in England, shipped to Belgium and then imported to
America, possibly during the War of 1812, when direct commerce with
England was cut off.
