Deer Isle.
Martin G. Warren of South Deer Isle,
was shockingly gored last Saturday by a
bull. The animal was in field Of grain
and Mr.. Warren went to assist some women
in driving him out, when the creature rushed
upon him. At the first rush the bull tossed
him over his head, cutting and bruising him
fearfully; before Mr. Warren could rise
from the ground the bull was goring him
again. At some time in the fracas the bull
inserted horn in Mr.. Warren's left ear and
nearly tore it from his head. DIR. Frink
sewed it on and made the patient as comfor-
table as possible. The man would have been
killed if the women had not rushed upon the
bull with large clubs. They were too much
for him and it gave Mr.. Warren a chance to
escape.
