Great grandfather was across the river and we went over in a canoe dug out of a big log. MHR note: The following incident in the early life of William Ribelin Hedges was told by George Edward Hedges, son of James Alva Hedges and his wife Philora (Allen). When "Willie Riblan" was about 10 years old, he shot and wounded a bear on or near the home place in Kentucky but did not kill it. He ran to the house in excitement to get the dogs. Upon hearing what was afoot, his father Levi Hedges said he knew where the bear would go and knew a short cut to the place. He went with Willie Riblan" with his own gun and intercepted the bear. He shot it himself and Willie was outraged as it had been his bear and he had not been allowed to polish it off. In another telling of the tale: When Wm. Riblin Hedges was 10 years old his father sent him from their house on the Licking River in what was then Fleming County, on an errand over on Triplett River and he carried a gun. Hearing a squealing pig, he investigated and found a bear in the act of killing and eating it. Resting his gun across a log he shot and wounded the bear, which rushed into the woods, crossing the log behind which Wm. Riblin lay. He went home for his father and the dogs. His father put him in charge of the dogs and taking the gun, went across country to where he expected the bear to appear when the dogs chased it. He had figured correctly, so that when Wm. Riblan and the dogs got there, they found the bear already dispatched. Wm. Riblan had counted upon finishing what he had started and his disappointment threw him into a huff. | Hedges, William Ribelin (I1)
