Wolfe, however, objected to being spokento by "a damned Democrat," and threatened to"al&V his head otT," and having made a pass atthc aforesaid bead, thc owner thereof coolly

, knocked him down. Wolfe arose, breathingthreatenings and slaughter, and drawing a pistolof huge dimensions went for the luckless Sam¬son.

The chase was a long and devions one, lead¬ing through the halls of the Oonrthoose and end¬ing In the Guardhouse, where Wolfe was easilyoaptured, os ho asserted that one man could holdhim, but it would take three to manage his oppo¬nent. An investigation into tho case showed thatWolfe, grieving over thc result of the meeting oftho previous evening, had sought to drown hissorrows in whiskey. Samson, who waa appa¬rently in tho right, suffered only tn the particularof a torn coat, which was rent by Wolfe at thebeginning of the mclcc.
