CAT AND DOG LOVE
DOG KILLED: CAT DIES OF GRIEF The double tragedy of a dog being killed by a motor car and its inseparable companion, a cat, dying from a broken heart occurred recently at Combe Martin, Devon, England. The dog, Vic, a joyous rough-haired terrier, the cat, Dinkie, a pretty tabby, were born about the same time five years ago, and came into the possession of Mr. and Mrs. J. Hancock, of Combe Martin. They quickly became firm friends. They had their meals and frolicked in the garden together, and slept in the the same basket. Dinkie would often leave half her milk for Vic, and the latter ahvays shared dainty morsels with his friend. When ViVc was killed, Dinkie refused to be comforted, and for three days would take nothing to drink or eat. Then she was found dead on the doorstep. Now they are resting in' the same grave.
