DOG TIED AND LEFT
TOSTARVE TO DEATH
3ody of Animal Tied to Tree Found
on Lonely Island in the Mis-
sisspp River.

Fr..ni Maberry, an employee al
Waite town hospital, while rowing on
the NJ ssissippi river yesterday landed
upon a small island below Campbell's
island and there found the body of a
dog. the circumstances indicating a
pitiful Heath. The animal had been
tied to a tree with heavy rope, the
knot being drawn up within few
inches OF it's neck so it had no oppor-
tunity to gnaw its way to freedom.
The emaciated body showed that star
walton had caused death. Evidently
some inhUman wretch had deliberate
ly taken the dog to the island where
he felt sure nobody would find it, tied
it up and left it to die.
