A wager was depending on the issue of a battle between his favour- ite dog Trusty, and another of the same breed ; when, at a part of the road least frequented, there appeared two men, whose evil designs were sufficiently ap- parent. James was known to bet high, and of course to be in cash on these occasions : he had been probably m...arked. Nothing daunted at their approach, he took his mea- sures with great judgment. Laying hold of the dog by his collar, he civilly desired them to keep the opposite side of the road ; telling them, at the same time, that his dog was very fierce. The men, however, were bent on a desperate errand, and were not to be intimidated. 18 The attack was made, and the dog let loose, who, together with his master, found them sufficient employment ; till another of the gang coming up, Watson thought it expedient to consult his own safety by flight, leaving the faithful animal to con- tend the matter alone.
