A TALKING DoG.-The following account of
canine wonder we cut from an old number of
the Dumfries (Scotland3 Journal, bearing date
June IL, 1929: In the year 1915, soon after
the battle of Waterloo, a dog came into this
world, and in honor of the hero who achieved
the greatest victory Of modern times, he was
named Wellington. Nothing particular was OBJ
served about Wellington, except an unusual
| degree of sagacity, until about fourteen days
ago. Last week we were invited by his owner
| to pay him a visit, as he said, to hear Yelling
ton speak! We say we were invited to hear a
dog speak! Now, though we are not aware that
we are more credulous than our neighbors, we
accepted the invitation; and though We were
not above twenty minutes in his company, he
pronounced our Christian name, which happens
to be William, nearly q dozen times, with as
much distinetness as the generality of animals
with only two legs. We have repeated our visit
| to him since, and he again repeatedly did us
| the honor to mention our name. On one of
/ these occasions we were accompanied by two
| friends, who were as incredulous as we were at
first, and as much surprised, but can now bear
testimony to what we state. Marvellous and
incredible as this may appear, and we are aware
that it must be so to most people, the family in
i whose keeping he is give the following account
of his Grst attempt at pronouncing the name
One of the young men in the family, of the
name of William, to whom the dog was much at
tached, and whom he at the same time feared,

and has continued to do so when desired ever
since"
