A spotted Holstein heifer once 0p-
posed a certain railway project, and
was badly hit in the General Smash-
up. In fact, for many weeks she could
walk only on Three Legs, and for a
whole season was compelled to fore-
go her customary Vernal Diversion of
Beds.
Thereupon the Holstein Heifer se-
cured the services of an Able Attor
ney, and brought suit against the Rat
road Company for Ten Thousand Dol-
lars as compensation for Injuries Sul
fered. She produced Witnesses gaiore.
who testified that the Ergineer -neg-
lected to sound the Whisliz to warn
