A GRANT negro with . Grant coon,
challenged Allen, the colored Greeley
man, to allow his Greeley dog te
have . bout with that coon. Allen con.
sented and dog and coon went into battle
The struggle was fierce and resulted in
the death Of the coon. The Grant negro
then in wrath denounced Allen q Q ras.
cally Greeley man and declared that be
could, in the twinkling Of an eye, whip
Allen out Of ais boots. Allen gently
doubted the correctness of this assertion,
and thereupon the Grant negro struck Al.
len . tremendous blow on the head,
whereupon Allen diligently proc ,eded to
strike back and perseveringly continued
to do 30 until he had laid the Grant negro
defeated by the defunct Grant
coon. And now Allen de-
clares bis Greeley dog can whip
any Grant coon living, and that he can de-
feat any Grant negro who objects.
