PLucKY.-Thc st. Adams Messenger in
its report Of the Firemans' Muster, at Bur
lington, narrates the following incident. No
one acquaintcd with Capt Wood will doubt its
accuracy.
There were several little fights in town
during the day, every one caused by rum
None Of them are worthy Of record except
this Late in the afternoon, Capt Louis
Wood, Of the Montpelier company, had the
misfortune to receive a severe wound in his
foot by the falling Of an iron bar As he
was being helped into the American hotel by
two OF his companions they met two drunken
roughs, who, though cautioned to make room,
purposey staggered against them 1t was
too much for the Captain, and, wounded
though he was, he knocked one Of them fiat
upon the floor as much as six feet distant
The other again staggered up and Capt. Wood
gave him the same compliment, severely
bruisng his nose and forehead and making
the blood run freely, The bystanders saw nc
occasion to interfere and it was the universal
exclamation " Served them right !"
