The weazel haz an eye like a hawk, and a tooth like a pickerel.
They kan see on all three sides of a right angle tri angle board fence,
at once, and kan bite thru a side ov sole leather.
They alwus sleep with one eye open, and the other on the wink, and are
quicker than spirits ov turpentine, and a lighted match.
It iz no disgrace for a streak ov litening tew strike at a weazel and
miss him.
If I owned a weazel, litening mite strike at him all day for 50 cents a
clap.
I hav tried tew kill them in a stun wall with a rifle, but they would
dodge the ball, when it got within six inches ov them, and stick their
heads out ov another krack, three feet further oph.
They are the hardest kritter amung the small game tew ketch or tew kill,
yu kant coax one into a trap, and keep him thare, enny more than yu
could ketch a ray of light, with a knot hole.
Weazles are skarse, but the supply alwus equals the demand, they aint
useful only for one thing, and that iz, too kill chickens.
They will kill 14 chickens in one night, and take off the blood with
them, leaving the corpse behind.
I hunted 3 weeks for a weazle once (it iz now six years ago), and knu
just whare he waz all the the time, and hain't got him yet.
