Uncle Dick and Lisa's Old Time Animal Tales

     In Paris, a bull dog, supposed to be mad jumped upon a horse which a gentleman was riding, but lost his hold, and the horse started at a desperate gallop, with the dog behind him. At first the gentleman tried to stop the horse, but subsequently urged him forward, judging apparantly, that is was better to run away with than to be bitten, by a mad dog. But the dog gaining, leaped on the horse’s quarter, but got his teeth only into the skirts of the gentleman’s coat. So they went through half of Paris. At last the gentleman was thrown, and the dog got hold of the horse and brought him down, and the dog and horse were killed by the police. The gentleman escaped with a broken leg.
