The Highlander's Resource.
The order had. been given to the soldiers at the-front that they must not harm any animal unless it attacked them. One day a Cameron Highlander saw a sheep near him and he bayoneted it. Unfortunately, just then an officer appeared. The soldier without hestitatio’n stabbed the sheep again; crying, “Ye divil, ye’d bite me’,'would ye!” The officer passed on and the sheep soon after became a dinner. —Boston Transcript.
