“Hr. Merriweather, siv: I may not

old man so wretched mad that he went
out and set & bull terrier on Peebles
before he had a chance to a Brogan,
and there was & scientific dog fight with
odds in favor of the dog, until they got
to the fence, and even then Peebles
would have carried bull-terrior home,
grippled Jike a clamp om his leg, if it

asserts, to this day, that they had to
draw all the dog's teeth to get the fiesh
out of his mouth, “for he had an awiul
holt for such a small animal.”
Of course Merriweather’s danghier
heard about it, and she was go mad that
she neyer gave the old man any peace
until he went around the next day te
see Peebles about it. Peebles looked
pale as a ghost from loss of blood and
