to Stems complaint. came back with
the following petition to the court.
Defendant denies that said dog Is
or was OF q savage disposition or q
vicious temper, not even In dog days.
but. on the contrary, defendant AYERS
that said Rover has always borne a
]. good reputation among his neighbors,
palss and associates In the commun-
Ity In which he resides for being q
peaceful, quiet and law-abiding ca
nine, always kind to his friends and
faithful to his master. The defendant
further AYERS that the dog is a great
home body and is always at home at
night"
The following lines In the bill ex-
. press the attachment the defendant
feels toward his dog Rover:
I like to see little dog
And pat him on the head.
So prettily he wags his toll
Whenever he In fed.
Some little dogs are very good
And some are useful, too.
And do you know that they will mind
What they are bid to do?
1.-THE defendant therefore prays,"
continues the bill, that this honor
able court will spare both dog and de-
fendantt from any decree which
would in any way interfere with the
long relationship heretofore existing
between the defendant and his dog
Rover"
Judge Girten will pass upon the pc
tition July 81.
