had shown in coming to it. The dog
started to follow, the master woke,
sat up and swore at him, while he
paced to and fro between the tree and
the squat umbrella bush under which
the woman was hiding. The three
hrawlers staggered down the path,
kicked at the dog, mauled the man,
who cried "Police!" while the dog
flew at the throat of one Of them, and
would have killed him If pair of
watchmen had not come to the rescue.
Blow after blow fell on him; he only
cienched his teeth the tighter. Then
the greater brute, slowly coming to
an understanding, called the dog au
fhoritatively, who dropped off, bloody,
dizzy, half dead from his beating. and
fell to licking the hands of the man
he had tried to protect.
"fhe dog is mad!" said one OF the
brawlers; I'VE chased him in here.
Kill him! Kill him!" The others
laughed and confirmed the lie. Yes;
