most thrilling adventure with the iloek
Of white swans recently. He was out

gan eircling close down on him. Then
they made q sudden sweep and nearly
knocked him down.
The swans renewed the attack on the
japanese with more vigor than ever.
They dashed at him and struck him in
passing from all directions He sought
to drive them off by swinging his hat,
but that had no effect. He then ran TO
the nearest fence followed by part OF
the flock, and Selling a rail defended
himself but still the swans attacked him
until he had knocked down several.
The horse which the Japanese had
left hitehed TO the plough was also at
tackled by more than score of the
angry birds The animal did the best
he could to defend himself with his
heels and teeth while his owner was
welding the rail at his assailants. sud

took fight, leaving the japanese master

1T was the most remarkable and com
