TERRIFIC FIGHT
Between a Ferocious Boar ane
and Horses:
One Of the Latter Killed and the Others
Manned.

.
The story of a remarkable and
ferocious fight between domestic
animals comes from the vicinity OF
Vaudeville, Wood county, w. Va.
On Saturday Elliott Fankhouser,
a we'll known farmer Of that local
lily. attended a picnic, but returned
home early and put three of his
horses in field In which there is a
large boar.
Later In the evening Mr.. Fank-
houser, desiring to drive to a neigh
boris, went 10 the pasture field after
a horse. He went into the field for
some distance and was startled to
discover one of bis horses lying on
the ground, literally cut to pieces.
There were long gashes on its legs
and under side of Its body, and the
ground indicated that there had
been a terrific combat, the turf be-
ing torn for some distance.
Mr.. Fankhouser was at loss TO
understand what had happened, but
as the horse was still alive he con-
cluded he would go after a veterin'
arian to render assistance in saving
the animal. He ran on the hunt
of another horse and found one,
dead. This one also had been cut
In a terrible manner and was liter
ally disemboweled.
Going to another portion Of the
field he found the third horse terri
bly, wounded. and he also discov-
cred the boar covered with
blood and very nearly ex-
hausted, though still in fighting
mood. The animal had accom-
plished the deadly work with lis
long tusks that protruded several
iuches from the sides of Its Jaw and
cut like rszor.
1t IS one OF The most remarkable
instances of the kind ever noted In
this country. All the horses were
valuable ones, and the two that
were wounded will probably be
worthless If they survive their ter.
rible injuries.
It was evident that the borses
attempted to defend themselves
with their hoofs, as there were nu
merous marks on the boa1's body
indicating that 1t had received Sc
we're punishment.
