them for his own.
The next morning small party of the
wreckers came down from the rocks and
moved along the shore. 1t was strewn
with fragments of the wreck, and here
and there were scattered along the shore
the bruised and mutilated bodies of the
briggs crew. Among the party was Rob

4 Docs CONFIDENCE Robert Hey
perbendary, of Litchfeld, Vicar of Bel
per, Derbyshire, sends the following
description of the conduct of bull ter
rier at Clay Cross, to the AHinaal World:
She was rejoicing over litter of pups,
attending to them with a motherly care,
caressing them and showing for them
| much anxiety. The owner of this in
| teresting family, accompanied by some
| friends, came to look at them. The
| fierceness of the mother was at once de-
veloped, and manifested by impetuous
growlings, snarls and barkings. She
would evidently die in defence of her
offspring. But her master said 81 can
take every one of those pups away from
the mother, and she shall not hurt me. .
He drew near and approached his hand
towards the pups. The mother flew at
it and seized it in her mouth. He did
not attempt to withdraw it until she re-
leased it. He proceeded to lay hold of
one of the pups. She seized his hand
again and held it fast, but without Bit
ing it. By degrees he withdrew one of
was repeated until every pup was re-
moved and the mother was bereft of all
her offspring. She was the picture of
misery. She looked up piteously in her
masters face and howled with an ex-
ceeding bitter cry.
The appeal could not be resisted. He
replaced the little ones in their nest and
/ reioiced to witness the caresses and graft
| fication of the mother. But his sur
| prise and that of his friends was great
when he saw her take them up one by
one in her mouth, and bring them and
lay them down at his feet He waited
| to see what she meant, and was soon
convinced that she wished to express her
entire confidence in her master. She
laid her dear ones at his feet, one by one,
| with the assurance that he would take
| care of them with affection equal to, if not
greater, than her own. She then went
back to her nest, now empty, lifted up
her head into the air, and gave vent to
several piteous cries, until her little ones
were once more restored to her It is
impossible to misunderstood her i'm
pulse. She had at first doubted her
master, but now she trusted him. She
brought them of Her own accord. and
placed them at his disposal, with full
confidence in his love.
