Notes - A PANTHER FIGHT.
Captain Cumberlege, Deputy Commissioner of Sumbulpore, in writing to his sister, under date of 24th January last, says, "Do not be horrified when I tell you that I have been in bed ten days with wounds received from a panther. I was very roughly handled, but am now quite out of danger. It happened thus I had wounded the brute, and was tracking it up by its blood, when all of a sudden it rushed out of a patch of long grass, and charged a coolie. I rushed forward and fired to save the man, though I could scarcely see for the grass, and in another second, before I knew where I was, I received a smashing blow on the face, which nearly stunned me and knocked me backwards. I managed to turn on my face, and the brute then seized me by the shoulder and shook me like a rat. He then left me and attacked a policeman, who was the only man standing near. He pulled him down, and hearing his shrieks I revived, and, as they were rolling over and over together, I felt about for my rifle it had still one barrel loaded, and, on recovering it, I dragged myself up and shot the panther while he was still gnawing at the poor wretched policeman. I have three nasty scratches under my eye, and some eight tooth-holes in the back. The poor policeman died last night; he completely lost heart, had delirium, and saw tigers in his sleep."
