Add to ORKGbridge nA piece of board placed within a deathfall; one end of which is hung to a small stake by a piece of twine, and the other end is supported in an horizontal position by a peg (called a tongue.) When an animal treads on it, the peg is drawn out, which sets the cat-killer at liberty, and that falls upon the back of the creature and kills it.PRINTED ITEM DNE-citG.M.Story August 1959Used I and SupUsed I and Sup3Not usedCard is stamped DNE-cit, but its contents are not used
