and as he enters the warm cabin he lets loose a long almost mad laugh which sends the cat scurrying under the bed and the sets the dog to waggin its tail. ...and in the distance far beyond the wood walls he hears an answer to his lunatic laugh; a howl at the arctic moon searching for a mate. Then and there he knows; he knows as he has never known before. After filling the cat and dog's food bowls he jots a hurried note on the back of an envelope and drops it on the kitchen table... Thus begin the legendary adventures of the Mad Trapper of Rat River. reliablehost.com ghunk

mnm, i couldn't resist. unwittingly the parallels we painted to the real Albert Johnson are uncanny. it just struck me when i read your phrase "mad laugh". i immediately thought "lunatic laugh" and connected it to the moon, then to the howl, then to the wolf then to the man who lived and died wild and free. what made him mad? what made him shun people and live beyond societies reach in custom and thought? what power gave him the super human stamina of his last days? there are many questions historians can't answer. but there are documented RCMP records of the massive manhunt for a lone man of seemingly inhuman cunning and strength. ghunk
