Fox Makes Mistake
Of Attacking Man
SAVANNAH, Ga., Dec. 18 OP)
C. W. Grizzard, of Tattnall I
Homes, came to town with the
warm body of a big red fox.
He told the Morning News his
story:
He had stopped his automobile
eight miles from Savannah to
inspect the tires. He heard a
rustle in the leaves and turned
to see what caused the noise. At
that instant the fox leaped upon
him. Grizzard grabbed the
animal by Its snout, gave a quick
jerk and broke Its neck.
