chance to save his life, Grief caught
the animal by the neck and attempted
TO prevent goring. In his efforts to
evade the horns OF the bull Grief was
several times hurled to the ground and
trampled on.

be killed, young Mortlard, who had
seen Grieffs predicament from afar,
came running down the road with q
small red flag, waving 1t furiously and
yelling. OF sudden the bull looked
up, and, seeing the red flag waving
at him through the fence, made a
wild rush for the boy. Grief. although
badly injured, managed to crawl to the
fence and through to the road, while

bull with the flag. Grief fell uncon.
scious a moment after reaching safety.
He sustained several broken ribs and
