_Etymology of "Havior."_--Can any of your readers inform me

what is the etymology of the word _Havior_, by which all

park-keepers denote an emasculated male deer, affording good venison

between the buck and doe season?

Never having seen the word written or printed, I am guided, in

attempting to spell it, by the usual pronunciation.
