Tiger Cat Legend In Bristol Past And Centennial Fireworks
In a Jan 8 1876 Bristol Phoenix reminiscence the writer recalls a Revolutionary era “tiger cat” said to roam Bristol hunts dogs at night. An elderly grandfather describes the creature killing dogs at doorsteps and its elusive nature before a Bristol Neck incident and a failed hunt by Mr Manchester. The piece blends local legend with a New Year centennial celebration on the Bristol Common and notes a townwide festivity with bells, bands, bonfires, and fireworks marking the year 1776 anniversary.
