the pup was given him by friend In

out to the doctors house to get the pup.
Here another difficulty was encountered.
The dog had disappeared, and no one
seemed to know what had become of 1t.
Finally Martin placed the hired man
under arrest, and started with him to

told where the canine was concealed

then got the dog and turned it over to
