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. 12. SHARP'S PERCUSSION CARBINE. L. 39" 13. SMITH PERCUSSION CARBINE. L. 38" 14. DATED ENGLISH MILITARY PISTOL. L. 16" Bears the stamp of the British East India Company, and the date "1810". No maker's name. Brass mounted and similar to the pistols used 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" Brass mountings, round barrel and bag grip. This pistol bears a 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. 16.
