Uncle Dick and Lisa's Old Time Animal Tales

Two gentlemen who were passing a house in Worchester, Mass., recently, were attracted by a large Newfoundland dog, which kept running toward them and then returning in the direction of a pond in the grove, where something was evidently wrong. They followed the dog to the pond were they found another dog in the water, and unable to get out. His front paws were on the curb-stone, but he could not get sufficient hold to draw himself up. He was nearly exhausted, and would probably have drowned had not the gentlemen assisted him. The dogs showed their gratitude in unmistakable signs.
