so that it was decided by others present
that they should settle the affair after
work hours, and see who was the best
man. The spot selected for the tussle was

the evening when the time appointed ar
rived several made their appearance to
see ''fairpIay, " &C., &c. Time was called
and the two sailed into one another with
varying success for at least an hours time.
Things not being satisfactory to the crowd
present, it was decided to have free
fight all around, and after welting one
another to their hearts content 1t was de-
cided almost unanimously to withdraw
for repairs. One man was taken home
with his leg broken, and pools Of blood,
fragments OF red shirts and broken fcnc-
