A DOG SToRy we're

A Doc SroRy We we're touched
by n simple statement of the loss of a
boy and The fidelity of a dog in last
~cck's Caledonia. The boy fell into
the river in Barton unseen by any one
but girl. A large dog, owned near
by, heardsthe splash, ran to the spot
and ltaped into the stream. 1t was
just dark, and boy and dog disappear
ed before any help arrived at the spot
Next day the bodies Of the two were
taken from the water together, the dog
grasping the boys coat and vest collar
in his mouth, and the arms of the boy
c'asped around the dogs body SO
firmly were they united in the stvsggle
of death, that it was with no little
difficulty they were separated. The
grasp of the boy around the dog was
such as to prevent him from using his
legs. Otherwise he would doubtless
have rescued the boy.-Burlington
