KiUa Valuable Dog
Last Sunday an unknown parly
passing through Seio, ran doun and
killed P. H. MacDonalds Llewcllen
Setter dog. His back was broken
and he died in a few minutes. The
car was followed and when over­
taken in the vicinity of Green's
bridge, the driver refused to give
his name but said he lived in Port­
land. His license number was taken.
Those who saw the occurence sav
that the dog did not run after the
car or bark at it and that the driver
went 16 or 20 feet out of his way in
order to run oyer tee dog. Mr
MacDonald had owned the dog about
a year, having bought it when a pup
and paying 1150 for it.
