The record moose head taken in the province of New Brunswick was taken a few days ago near Bathurst Lake by L.A. Russell of Tracadie, Gloucester county, word to that effect being brought to Fredericton by Charles Cremin, the guide near whose camp the animal was killed. The spread of horns is 72 inches, beting the widest spread previously recorded by 3 1/ 2 inches. Dr. W. L. Munro of Providence, R.I., held the record for getting the largest spread of horns in New Brunswick until the kill of Mr. Russell. The spread was 68 1/ 2 inches.
