How Two Dogs Cared for Lost Child.

YESTERDAY morning we gave an &C
count of a child wandering away from
home on Thursday last, accompanied by
two dogs. The whole neighborhOod had
turned out and searched night and day
without success at the time we wrote
the account
The following is copy Of the hand
bills struck off and circulated:
LOST BoY-To THE PUBLIC.
Yesterday afternoon William Norman, my
son, left my residence, five miles from Lex
ington, on the Salt Pond road, and was last
seen on the road to town. He is five years OF
age, wore dark wooden coat dark jeans
pants, patched on the knees, and was fol-
lowed by two dogs; one black and the
other Of dark yelowish color.
Any information regarding his wherea.
bouts will be thankfully received, and will
relieve the anxiety of a mother and father.
WILLIAM A. SMITH.
LEXINGTON, Mo-, April ., 1875.
From Mr.. NJ. Carroll, the popular bag.
gage-master of the Lexington passenger
train, we learn the following particulars
of the discovery of the child yesterday
morning, which certainly shows the
wonderful sagacity and faithfulness of
the dogs which accompanied him:
AS in our account yesterday, the last
seen of the child was in fence corner
with his dogs. From there it seems he
wandered into the woods belonging tc
!udge Woods, eight miles from Lexing-
ton and three miles from his home. Here,
probably, night overlook the little wan
derer and darkness closed upon him,
cold, tired and hungry, with none to aid
him but his faithful four-footed compan-
ions. The nights at this time of the year
are too severe for robust man to be ex.
posed, and certainly a tender child, al
most an infant, would succumb to the
biting temperature.
But there Is a watchful Providence
above, and His interposition in this case
seems miraculous. The faithful dogs,
with an instinct that seems equal TO HUI
man intelligence, went 20 work and
scratched together bed of leaves. Into
this the boy crept, and then the intelli.
gent animals laid down, one on each side
of him, and kept him warm through the
night with the heat of their bodies.
Morning broke with the boy safe, his
shaggy guardians remaining at their
post. Though rested and refreshed, he
was almost fsmished with hunger
Again the wonderful instinct of the faith
full dogs was equal to the emergency
They sat out foraging, chased and killed
rabbit, and brought it to their young
charge, laying it at his feet. The boy
eagerly ate of the raw meat, and when
discovered was busily engaged in APP
peasing his hunger.
When the party who discovered him
endeavored 10 approach the child the
dogs became exceedingly ferocious, and
would not let one of them approach him.
The bows father and 6Ors' naSta- had
to be sent for before they could get the
child from his noble protectors.
The JOY Of the parents can be easily
