rae Faithful Dog OF nelveuyn.

A monument has been erected on
Helvellyn Ca mountain Of Cumber-
land, England, 3, 300 feet high) TO
the memory Of Charles Cough, who,
I'm the year 1906, was killed by fall
ing from the high crags on the ridge
that joins Striding Edge TO the Sum
nit; and OF the faithful dog that for
three months watched over her mas
ter's remains. Sir Walter Scott de-
scribes the event in the poem, Il
climbed the dark brow Of the mighty
Helvellyn," and Wordsworth records
ii in his lines on "Fidclity."
The young man was returning u
Wythburn, where he lodged, from Il
fishing excursion in Patterdale. The
accident was probably caused by a
false step, during a binding hail
storm or a dense fog that day. 1t
happened on April Is, and on July 20
his bones were found, still watched
by the starving dog, a little yellow.
rough-haired female terrier. She
had given birth 10 puppies, which
were found dead by the side OF the
corpse. 1t is believed, though unable
TO secure enough food for milk for
her young, she maintained life 10y bits
OF carripn sheep which are not unfre-
Qrently found on the hills: but she
might have had TO range far and wide
during her three months watch.
The mere fact that the bones were
found intact serves TO prove the as
sertion that the dog did not touch
the remains Of her master, for dogs
break the bones to suck the marrow.
This animal died few years after
ward at Kendall.
The merit Of the suggestion TO erect
this monument belongs TO Miss Fran
ces Power CObbe, whose design has
