George Cowles received news of the
death of an only dog a day or two since, un

at
From an article clipped from a Colorado pa
prr, «e learn that old Pomp first saw the
. light at sea, some nine days old at the time,
• ou his way from the laud of his forefathers,
'&£££
by lstj <, at the age of lourteen. We have not
riMim t0 r bis history, except that lie spent
his early youth in New York, and was taken
by Geo. Cowles to Illinois, and afterwards to
Colorado, where he has since resided until
his death, respected by all and venerated by
younger pups »or his quiet and orderly con
duct, anil dignified demeanor. He was not
given to the reprehensible practice of bark
ing at other dogs or passers by, neither did
he engage in disgraceful street fights. This
is the only youngster George ever brought
up, but it shows an aptitude for training the
young in the way they should go, that leaves
a painful reflection on the mind when we
reflect that Pomp was the only ward he and
his excellent lady have ever had an oppor
tunity to practice their moral training upon.
