Lafayette [Ind.] Journal.
    McDowall Cox, who lives about four miles from Lafayette, in Wabash Township, about two weeks ago lost a dog which he highly prized. The last that was seen of the animal was one day about that length of time ago, when he scared up some unknown creature and darted out of sight after it. A day or two ago Mr. Cox accidentally discovered his dead body in the woods, and about thirty feet distant the dead body of a large wolf. The ground around the wolf was covered with hair torn from his wooly coat. Evidently the dog, after a long struggle, had killed the wolf, and then walking off a distance of thirty feet or so, laid down to die. The wolf stood about twenty-two inches in hight when on his feet, and was more than twice as large as the dog.
