"BrLL" FRrZzLE AND HIS AssAILANrs.-
Mike and James Sherry were before Justice
Buckley this morning to settle up matters in re-
ference to their assault on John Frizzle. On
Friday, the 2Sth ult., it appears that Bull
Frlzzle thought the boundaries of his land were
not well enough defined, and commenced NOV
ing out his fence on the land of Mike and James
Sherry, adjoining. Mike and Jim couldn't see
this. and after telling "Bulr' that he had bet
ter desist and he would work further Mt his peril,
without effect, they pitched into him, breaking
one of his ribs and diseoloring his blooming
c0untenanee generally. "Bull" having got well,
the case came up before Justice Backey this
morning. and after testimony pro and con-. du-
ring which MANY amusing incidents occurred.
owing to Bulls peculiar manner, Justice b.
held the SherrXs to hail for Court.
