DOG AWAY FROM HOME. For the First Time in Forty Years Surprise for L. J. Hammond.

Probably the most surprised man in Windham Center, and perhaps in the entire town of Windham, Friday morn ing, was l.. J. Hammond. MT. Ham mond went to the postoffice to get his morning mail as usual, and shortly afterwards discovered that his dog, which had not been known to have been off his premises in forty years, was on the Green looking at his mas ter. MT. Hammond. knowing that his dog had neither collar nor tag on, did not wish to be prosecuted, and was justly angry to think that someone had induced the dog to leave the premises without the knowledge of his owner.
 He walked back to the store to see if he could find any of the village lads who are known for their pranks. Some were found, and they were given a good talking to. MT. Hammond then had the dog taken back home. The animal is 6 fine specimen, and has been owned by it's master for many years. It is of that particular breed that is noted for it's longevity and nos exactly active. The dog is fashioned of iron, and was carried away by boys who were out enjoying Halloween.
