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.
