Dog Commits Suicide

One of the most startling acts Of
an animal which has ever been repor-
ted to have occurred in these parts
was the suicide OF a ST. Bernard dog
by drowning in Rough Creek, near
the Hartford bridge last Friday morn
ing AT least such is the report OF
two of Hartfords citizens whose vera
city has never heretofore been ques-
toned. Messrs. Sam Riley and John
Blair were sitting on the platform at
the Hartford Mill Company's place
of business on that morning and no.
ticed the dog pass down the street
going towards the bridgs. They were
attracted to him by his size and de-
meanor. They followed his movement
until he had crossed the bridge and
descended the opposite bank to the
water, where he attempted to get in
to a small craft which was anchored
at a point. Failing in this he
waded into the water and began to
swim as though intending to cross
back to the shore from which he had
previously come, but when about mid
way the stream, the animal ceased
to exert any effort to swim fur
Their and sank cut of view 1t is the
belief of these gentlemen that the
dog intended to end his existence
or thic time Tho dos which was
about eight years old was owned by
Mr.. Henry Pirtle and he reports that
he had been suffering from some
trouble in his head for a few days
previous to Tie dare before mention

The death of Mrs. Lucy Griffin Cob
Inns which occurred on the morning
of July first at her home on Mulberry
street, has caused widespread grief
in our community, and it does not
consist Of words, of sympathy, and
offerings of lovely flowers alone, but
deep down in our heart, there are
throbbings of sincere sorrow, for the
passing of the loving mother, the 10y
al friend, the faithful neighbor, the
gentle christian woman, for it is true,
that,
None knew her but to love her.
None knew her, but to praise
She was the daughter of Warren
Griffin, and Mary Utterback, and was

December, 1858, she was married 10

and estimable family Mr.. Henry Crit

which she loved always attending it's
services, when her delicate health per-
mitted, will mourn her loss and her
influence.
During her last illness when she
knew the shadows were gathering
around her and that the summons had
come, she told her family flat she
was ready and willing to go. She
bore her intense sufferings, without
a murmur, ard gently passed from

bar, to the beautiful land, where so
many loved ones, are gathering home.
