Death Of "Ted."

The passing of this faithful canine
has just come to our notice, and as he
was as true to his master as Is the
needle to the pole, we feel like indict-
ing few words to his memory. He
was only a little black dog, the prop
erty of Judge w. W.. Jones, but he
loved his MASTER" and was lost when
the Judge was absent from home, and
upon his return he was ever ready to
meet him and play at his feet. The
Judge and his entire family priced him
highly, and we doubt not they would
have willingly given UP more valu-
able animal,so far as dollars we're con-
cerned, to have saved the life of lied. "
Good bye, Tied T" If the world loved
as you loved happy would be its entire
population. When you reached dog
heaven and barked, your friends, who
have gone before, surely knew your
mouth, and opened the gate.
