courage. He would do" said Fitzsm-
mons, what he was asked to do, IL his
heart broke"
In the pasture back of the special
stable in which he kept the stallion was a.
pasture in which was one of Fitzsimmon's
finest cattle, imported from the Island
OF jersey. BY some means the Jersey
got into the stable, and when the stable
was locked up for the night the COW and
the stallion were there together
About one o'clock in the night stable
hands heard a commotion there. Two Of
them went to opsn the door but the
sounds were SO terrifying tnnt they did
not dare. 1t sounded as II the barn were
being torn from Its underpinn.ngs

The hedlam continued without a moment $
