which being thought lonelier,
determined on this occasion tc
follow, as / desired to reach the
other end in time for the stage
that passed at @ P. NJ.
i, Having eaten nothing since
morning. and having a few
! minutes to spare, I turned Kitty,
my little six-year old sorrel, loose
! TO Craze. knowing that she would
not stray far; then lighting a fire
I speedily had my tin pot OF cof-
fee in preparation. 1 plucked
some blackberries, which grew
luxuriantly thereabouts, and had
Just seated myself to cat my meal
when the whizz Of bullet close
TO my ear, accompanied by the
sharp report Of rifle behind me,
caused me to turn, and then l
saw that the bushwhackers came
upon me.
| Kitty responded to my whistle,
and in an instant was in the sad
die But which way should I go?
The trap was well sprung; l was
surrounded on all sides. I must
act rapidly il I would save myself,
and, with the principle of life
which quickens the instinct at the
moment of extreme danger, /
emptied two barrels of my revolt
yer and n like number of the sad
dies of my assailants' horses al
most simultaneously. Then lay.
ing close to the back of my little
beast, thus a1ording but small
mark for the missiles Of my pur-
suers, which fell thickly around
me, gave Kitty the spur and
chirrup of encouragement, as,
true to her mettle, she darted
like an arrow down the by-road
through the ranks of the mar
auders.
Then l experienced hot,
singing sensation across my
shoulder, like the cut of knife
and II shrill cry from Kitty told
that the same ball that traversed
my shoulder blade had passed
through her right ear.
