 singular development in connection with the shipment of Nome dogs to the French war zone. This consists of the remarka- ble fact that Father Bernard found one dog formerly owned by himself among the animals employed in the French service Concerning the discovery of the dog Bernard says that he was for two months with the French forces in Alsace and the Vosges mountains.
