Narrative:
On takeoff roll on runway 35, at some point just prior to V1, there was a 'T6' aural warning for the #2 engine. I had enough time to observe the gauge and note that T6 was within acceptable limits at about 760 degrees. At this point there seemed to be just enough time for it to flash through my mind that the first officer had been a little over aggressive with power lever application, but that everything was back to normal based on what I had observed on the gauge. In any case, the 'V1, rotate' call came and I responded and we were airborne. Liftoff was normal, but was followed very quickly by another 'T6' aural warning and the #2 engine feathering itself. There were no control problems encountered. We informed the tower, declaring an emergency, and flew the aircraft back around the pattern to an uneventful landing on the same runway. We shut down the aircraft and offloaded the passenger on the taxiway due to a report of possible smoke coming from the tailpipe. This was accomplished without incident or injury.

Title: INFLT ENG SHUTDOWN DURING TKOF PROC MANDATES A RETURN LAND. ACFT EVACED STRANDED.
Narrative: ON TKOF ROLL ON RWY 35, AT SOME POINT JUST PRIOR TO V1, THERE WAS A 'T6' AURAL WARNING FOR THE #2 ENG. I HAD ENOUGH TIME TO OBSERVE THE GAUGE AND NOTE THAT T6 WAS WITHIN ACCEPTABLE LIMITS AT ABOUT 760 DEGS. AT THIS POINT THERE SEEMED TO BE JUST ENOUGH TIME FOR IT TO FLASH THROUGH MY MIND THAT THE FO HAD BEEN A LITTLE OVER AGGRESSIVE WITH PWR LEVER APPLICATION, BUT THAT EVERYTHING WAS BACK TO NORMAL BASED ON WHAT I HAD OBSERVED ON THE GAUGE. IN ANY CASE, THE 'V1, ROTATE' CALL CAME AND I RESPONDED AND WE WERE AIRBORNE. LIFTOFF WAS NORMAL, BUT WAS FOLLOWED VERY QUICKLY BY ANOTHER 'T6' AURAL WARNING AND THE #2 ENG FEATHERING ITSELF. THERE WERE NO CTL PROBS ENCOUNTERED. WE INFORMED THE TWR, DECLARING AN EMER, AND FLEW THE ACFT BACK AROUND THE PATTERN TO AN UNEVENTFUL LNDG ON THE SAME RWY. WE SHUT DOWN THE ACFT AND OFFLOADED THE PAX ON THE TXWY DUE TO A RPT OF POSSIBLE SMOKE COMING FROM THE TAILPIPE. THIS WAS ACCOMPLISHED WITHOUT INCIDENT OR INJURY.
