manner he said he was in a hurry and ind want to drink add and attempted to goon ahead but one of teem them named william williar murray seized his horse sand stopped them thinking it would appease them and cause them to let him go on he took a drink ile he then started on when he heard beard murray and another named john Altic macfarlane farlane qua quai elling telling and one of them thein called on him again to stop but ile he pressed on when they ran up stopped ills hia team and ind took hold ot of hirn liim by the wrist he then got out of the and macfarlane drew a pocket knife and told bim lim lambert ho he was going to have a fight at tile the same time striking at him with the we weapon mr lambert warding off the blows with his arm and finally striking Macfar macfarlane iane laue with his fist flat on the forehead knocking him down and taking the knife from him murray who is a stout powerful fellow then attacked lambert Lambs rt and macfarlane recovering on renewed his

another other of th the thu e four men named D mcallis mcallister McA lliter ier lut but iut being nearly blinded and half insensible during part of the time he be could not be certain of that bu but bub tat bat at all events mea mca mcallister ulster nister pulled him about and otherwise assisted amsted the other two mr lambert who is known to be a respectable and sober mari mail is fearfully
