On the 23d ult., Mr. Wesner, in company with John Wesner, Daniel Gouger, George Wesner, Thos. Roberts and Mark Wesner, started him up near Berkley, and after a chase of about half an hour he was shot by Mr. Levi Wesner, near Tuckerton Station, on the East Pa. R.R. The wolf was a very large one of the kind.
