Aware of the hormble act he had com- mitted, and aware also of the ready punishment for such an offence, Pat took himséf of, leaving 115 Mott street as far behind him as hecouta that night. A Warrant was issued, and while the officers of the court were jooking for him officer Rtley, of the Fourteenth precinct, arrested himand brought him Si ‘What dia bite this man for?” “What did you bite this man for?’ demandea th Aitivell yer Honor, let me tell re Cod ‘ “Well, yer Honor, m J "8 own truth,’ replied WeLaughitn, “He was tight 80 was I; 54 come into my piace, and the frst thing I knowed Was his teeth were right in my cheek here.
