by a Holstein bull he was leading to

and secured the halter rope which he
tied to a post. He then attached the
rope to longer rope and went into
the bull-yard The animal started
after the man but Johnson ran into
the barn, the beast following, jumped
out of window and snubbed the rope
close to post, tying Mr.. Bull effect
ually. The farmer then went to the
house and had his bruises looked at.
