    (continued from previous page)
    rabbits, birds and rats. Any animal they catch they suck their blood. If any body went to kill a weasel, he lets a squeak, and when the other weasels hear that squeal, they are all off in a run to give help.
    Weasels are very cute, if a person killed them by accidents, they would never injure them. But if a person kill them and to mean it, if they were not able to kill them immediately they would kill them by some other plan, such as putting poison in the spring water for them.
