followed him everywhere like dog One
doy while at dinner with General Lamar
and Rev. Mr.. Fontaine, he was feeding him
with pieces of meat, and happening to give
him a rare slice, with blood dropping from
if. the lion seized the hand that held 1t,
crushing it, and growing 1iercely' with an
rry ewes fixed on his master. General John
stSn, without cry of pain or single move
neut. looked steadily at him and said qnl-
atIy several times, 'Let 20, Dan" But the
animal only growled aud lashed his tan,
when. turning to servaut, the General told
him 10 hand his pistol, which'tae filghteneo

his left hand, blew out the lions brains, bui
the hand was hopelessly manned.
