POWDER AND SHOT AND SHELL
If you will jog your memory a little and hark back to the Invention of the Gun you will be able to conjure up a picture of the hunter who carried his powder horn, or flask, his bullet pouch, paper for the wads and a ramrod, besides his gun, whenever he went a-shooting.
Bother was the front name of the old-fashioned muzzle-loading. gun, and to make more trouble, if such a thing was possible, after carrying along all these trappings the shooter wasted a lot of his precious ammunition every time he loaded up; besides, no matter if a bear or an Indian was right on his heels there was no such word as hurry in his old dictionary of getting ready to blaze away the second time.
Collins, A. Frederick. Shooting, for Boys,. New York: Moffat, Yard and, 1917. Print.
