A FAITHFUL DOG
Master's Body Watched SYDNBY, May 28. s ' A striking example of the love and 'loyalty of a dog for his master was1 revealed in the Coroner's .Court re-, cently. The dog watched over his master's dead body for several days and when a man attempted to enter the house the dog rushed savagely at him. | Sanley Thomas Wolfe told the coron-. ! er that he called at the house of the dead man, James Hillen, but received no response to his knock. He then climbed into the house by a window ; and saw Hillen lying on the floor with his head in an oven. A small silky terrier dog was near by. The dog had apparently ohtained fresh air from under the back door.
