Dog Travels 100 Miles
In Finding Way Home

Richmond, Va.-Doc, a deerhound,
lost last November in the Dismal
Swamp section of Sussex county,
35 miles below Petersburg, Va, re-
ported early the other morning at
the family farm of Artie Ford, in
Spotsylvania county, where his own
er. @. I'll. Montgomery, always had
kept him, and after a welcoming
bark stood at the place where he
had been used to being fed and
wagged his tail while he waited for
his breakfast.
Doc strayed from the pack while
Montgomery and other Fredericks-
burg men were hunting. Adver-
tisements in several newspapers
failed to bring any news of the val
liable dog and Montgomery gave
him up for lost. Although evident
ly having been detained for a time
at some home, or maybe taken and
kept by several persons along his
1O0-miIe route. the dog had kept in
mind his destination and arrived at
home in good condition.
