[lightfoot's] [clever] [trick] 

lightfoot [the] [deer] is smart . 
1 lightfoot 4 is
4 is 5 smart
5 smart 6 .

yes , [sir] [,] [lightfoot] the [deer] [is] smart . 
1 yes 2 ,
2 , 6 the
6 the 9 smart
9 smart 10 .

he has to be , especially in the hunting season , to save his life .

if he were not smart he would have been killed long ago .

he never makes the foolish mistake of thinking that other people are not smart .

he had a very great respect for the smartness of that hunter .

the certainty of danger is sometimes easier to bear than the uncertainty of not knowing whether or not there really is any danger .

he [had] [seen] [lightfoot] 's big footprints , and from their size he knew that [lightfoot] must be bigger and heavier than he .

he [knew] [that] [lightfoot] would feel this way about it and that this would make him fight all the harder .
