billrquimbyPeter Capstick killing buffaloes with a spear
Does anyone remember in which book he wrote about doing this? I've searched his books in my library, but can't find it.

Magnum Hunter1Bill,
It is in the last chapter of "Death in the Silent Places" and I dislike you tremendously for asking cause I like to have never found it but it was driving me crazy.

Practically had to read all of the books I had by PHC to find it.

BaxterBI kept looking until the trick or treaters showed up...nice find!

billrquimbyThanks, Magnum Hunter. Hope you don't hold it against me.
Guess I'm a terrible book scanner and, worse, a terrible detective. Just before I opened this file a few minutes ago, it dawned on me that I should try Googling "Capstick buffalo spear."
I did, and not only found the book, but excepts from the pages where they occurred were shown.
Anyway, thank you again.
