A Minot man, Dr. Palmer Wood, member of a party of three Minot hunters who made their headquarters in Willow City, shot his deer on the Lower Souris game reserve the first day of the season. The third deer was bagged by the third member of the party on the second day and when the trio went to load the game preparatory to leaving for Minot, it was learned that Dr. Wood's tagged deer had been stolen from the Willow City basement where it had been placed for safe keeping.
