Whipple's Faithful Dog.
Ero,n the Roston T,.o1s,er


Mr.. Whippes constant companion at his
home was Skye terrier dog; he used to call
him beautifully ugly" He was quite large
animal of that breed, and had a large head,
with an uncommonly broad brow and lavish
growth of long hair, that overshadowed the
most lustrous and sympathetic pair of eyes
ever seen in dog. 1t was delight to see
him romp with this pet, who had as sweet and
affectionate nature as any human being. A
short time before Mr.. Whipple's death the
animal was sent into the country for a sum
mer outing, and when he returned in the au-
tumn and missed his old master, the dog
became sad and sick. He was sent TO The
veterinary department of Harvard College
for treatment. He was taken home on Monday
last, languishing and much emaciated, to die.
He was placed in q box and buried at his
summer home, by moonlight
At the same house where the dog was left
for the summer there was an English pug
dog which was a great favorite. and many
day this last summer they have sported over
the fields together. AS soon as Mr., Whipple's
favorIte was carried out for burial. the Eng
fish pug seemed to know in sOme mysterious
way that his old friend and companion was
in the box, and he leaped on the box and
howled and walled and showed other signs of
great grief, and he had to be forcibly taken
off before his companion could be buried in
the corner of the garden, where this bright
and animated bit of animal life in such super
abundant spirits sported in full enjoyment of
life the last summer.
