THANK GOD!
Old Tony Comstock Gets Licked and Has a Rib Broken—Pity Dr. Doherty Had Not Broken Old Tony's Neck.
It is with great pleasure that I print the dispatch from New Haven, Conn., showing that Dr. J. J. S. Doherty has kicked old Tony Comstock down stairs and broken one of his ribs and bruised him up.
It's a God's pity—if there is any God—that Doherty had not broken old Tony's neck.
Ackerman thrashed Sam Jones, John Barleycorn knocked out Bundy, and now I am just waiting to see what the Lord is going to do to old Rucker and Thompson.
