Show BEQUESTS MADE BY PET DOG Pathos In Last Will Supposedly Mado by Irish Terrier Before His Departure De-parture From Thla Life. I, Peg o' My Heart, being nn Irish terrier In the prime of life, but mindful of the uncertainty of existence in theso days of motor cars, do wish to mako appropriate distribution of such properties prop-erties ns I possess. My brown leather collar I leave to Nassau, tho neighbor's dog, ns he has none. And to Nassau I also leave my cache of bones behind tho woodpile If ho can find It, My blue china plate nnd my drinking bowl I leave to Vnchel, the cat He hna always envied them. To my., master I bequeath respect' nnd obedience, not unmixed with fenr he was alwnys n little stern. But to my mistress, who understood me so well, my undying adoration, the whole devotion of my being. If her foot should" pass over my resting place my tall would wag nnd my cars prick up yes, were I ns dead us the Romun wolf. My eager Joy In life, the morning tingle In my paws, the delight of swimming swim-ming for sticks nnd running wild In sheer mndness of delight, tho million hnuhttng smells of the world, the thrill of footsteps pnsslng tho house nt night, the everlasting fun of being n llttlo brown Irish dog arid burking ut everything, every-thing, the agony of thrashings nnd tho bliss of being forgiven all theso I leave to my successor or to nnyono. who can use them.' My old box In tho cellar the cook may have for kindling wood. Christopher Chris-topher Morley In Life. |
