_Dr. Johnson._--Johnson says somewhere that he never was in a tight place

but once, and that was when he had a mad bull by the tail. Had he held on,

he said he would have been dragged to death over a stubble field; while if

had not held on, the bull would have gored him to death. Now my Query is,

what did Dr. Johnson do, hold on or let go?
