face made a queer contrast with her other
wise black attire. Women and children on
their way to the nearb" grocery store no
ticed the queer pair-old woman and dog
seated together, but no ones suspicious were
aroused by the woman's long rest.
Finally Mrs. Geisking, the wife of a baker
across the street, saw the handsome black
and white dog lick the woman's hands and
face and then give a dismal howl as his
caress was not returned. Fearing that the
old woman was ill and could not rise from
the step, she started to investigate. As she
approached she was met by a threatening
advance from the dog, and she reached the
step only after many kind words to the
animal. Shaking the old woman's shoulder
failed to arouse her, and when her arm
was raised it was found to be cold and stiff.
Mrs. Geisking dropped it with a scream
and notified the neighbors. a small crowd
collected around the old woman, but the
dog kept them all at bay. Every advance
was met by a snarl, and Policeman ellison
of the Third district was called.
His approach was likewise resented by
the faithful animal, but the patrol wagon
was called and the woman's body was placed
in it in spite OF the dogs protests and
growls. When his mistress was put in the
wagon and he was left out he howled and
barked and ran wildly about, but refused
to be caught. The woman was first taken
to the Pennsylvania hospital, where it was
found she had been dead some time, and
was then removed to the morgue, where
the coroner's post-mortem showed she had
succumbed to an attack of heart disease.
The dog followed the patrol wagon to the
