“Avettic,” Lock Box 9, Owensville. Ind.—l want
to come in and tell the cousins about my dearest
pet, winch is a little dog. Did I say little? Well,
you may judge for yourselves about his size, after
1 have described him. His name is Brandy-More-
Duke, but we call him Jack, tor short. He is not
yet two years old, and is 32 inches high, and
weighs about 115 or 120 pounds.
He is striped something like a tiger in color,
black and yellow. From his size you will think he
could eat a person up. So he could if he wanted
to, but he is very tender hearted aud would not do j
that. He is very sensitive. He knows as well t
wiien he is doing wrong as any one else. And it he :
thinks any of Ins friends are angry with him, he
sits down and puts out his paw as a. token of
friendship, and to show that he does not care
aboutt having them in a bad humor. He is just as
frindly as can be.
I will close, asking any of cousins (girls) to write
to me.
Myrtle Riggan, Splunge, Miss.—Aunt Susie,
please let one in just long enough to tell you how
much I love you and the cousins, and how I enjoy
reading your letters. I thought as I iiad never
written to The Constitution, I. would try to write a
short letter.
lam a country girl. I have to work in the field.
Igo to school; I love to go very much. My teacher
is very kind to me.
I will ask the cousins a question:
NV'ho was the great pacificator.
