Newfoundland won a second prime at ih
tlog-show a few year* ago.
Th* race was the result of an argu
ment between the musters of the two
dogs, in which Mr Kennedy maintained
that the strength and endurance of the
bull would overcome the skill of the other
dog ami facts showed that Mr Kennedy
was corret t In hla view He based K
upon nn event which happened within the
personal knowledge of one of his ances
tors Mr Kennedy** grandfather was an
Englishman and served a* first mat* on
a merchantman plying between London
and Halifax The vessel was wrecßed a
couple of miles off shore In a denn* fog
On hoard were three prime dogs of the
Newfoundland variety, which were being
exported to a sporting c|tih In Ijondon
The captntn tried fo pend a line to shore
by means of these d.g* and thus open
communication with land One of th*
dogs was put overboard with a sarong,
thin line fastened to his collar. He was
killed almost Instantly hy a wave driving
a broken spar against him More care
was taken with tlw other two dogs, hut
each wns overcome by the tsrrlflc **n
running and was drowned before half the
distance had been covered.
Asa last resort. Mr. Kennedy** grand
father suggested making n trial with the
enptaln’* brindled bulldog and his sugges
tion was acted upon. After almost five
hours of terrlflrwmiggllng with the rnglns
sea. the brave dog was tenderly lifted
out of the water, barely alive, and saved
from the rock* upon which he would have
l*een dashed to death. That bulldog sor
ed the lives of nil the men on honrd th
hlp hy his pluck and endurance. It la
quite natural for Mr Kennedy to set
store hy bulldogs nnd Badger In particu
lar. for he is a descendant of h* brin
dled bull that did for his grandfather
what three prime Newfoundlands could
not do.
