IN THE MATTER OF LEWIS. 

 y,iit,,r Forest and Stream: 



i 'i.ii'.i me Mi'v mucli by publishing (be enclosed letter from 

 Mr wade He has acted id a very frank and handsome man- 

 ner about , the Lewis matter, now that lie discovers that ho 

 \\ .1- in error and a little hasty in scolding me lor what I did. 

 1 will do myself tile honor of replying to Mr. Cornell next 

 wi ok, ami will have something to say concerning the way 

 Mr. Dalzfel expressed himseli about, our dogs here and the 

 K'-iinrl Glub. 



It is truly strange, and to toe incomprehensible, that when 

 one writes' earnestly and truthfully, and for the best inter- 

 i si- at oiir canine friends, he is hauled over the coals font. 

 However, the gentle sprav ivhirh has been dashed upon him 

 don't stir him from his Arm base Kti.akt T.\vi.,ik. 



1 Bast Thiktv-Sixth street, New York. 



Mr. Wade's letter is as follows: 



PiTTSBrncii. June ft. 1888, 

 Col. si nurt Taylor: 



My Dear Sin— Yours of tho ith is duly reeeivod. 1 am 

 much pleased thai my explanation is satisfactory. 1 could 

 not rest easy until 1 had endeavored to make amends to von 

 for hiv rush kmghl errantry and acknowledge my grievous 

 error' Accept my thanks for your frank and kind reply, I 

 ha-..- written to I'ouf.mt and Sthea.m withdra wing all that 1 

 Bald in Lewis's favor, and a letter from here has gone to the 



sa paper stating Just the .-■•nil it ion of affairs. Both should 



appear in this week's number. I am really at a los> to know 

 what opinion to form ot Lewis, further than that he is utterly 

 unreliable. I saw a lack of method, order and business in 

 him long ago, bu1 I could bed call it careless. He was always 

 hard a1 work, seemed to take good care of his dogs. etc. So 



[ concluded that tl ply trouble was. thai be had always 



been on underling, unaccustomed to taking the responsibility 

 for himself, and that linn- would cure the defects in him. I 

 did not blame him espcciailv for mange breaking out in his 

 kennels, as that seems to bearish always to be run, and I 

 thought be was doingbis best all the time to eradicate it. 

 lint now, wh-nnll is known, we tind that he was doing actu- 

 ally nothing to ,-ure it. We visited his place when he was 

 away and. we supposed, would never come back. We found 

 two bottles ol "phenyl," one of mange cure, one of oil of tor, 

 agallon-bottle of cod liver oil. and a hall -gallon can of the 



sain.-, all supplied linn bv hi- patrons, ftv -,,-t. and not one 



of them had ever been opened, while everv whiskv flask was 

 emptv. Oue dog was Ivmgik-ad in its kennel. It had died 

 before be lei:, and he had never moved it. He had that 

 gplfendid red setter bitch, Lady Clare, in one of mv kennels, 

 with door fastened by a stick propped against it (there was a 

 good lock on it and he had the kev). The bitch and another. 

 I". Ill in hfiat, got out and ran all round the neighborhood, and 

 if they have not both got cur litters.it is simply a piece of 

 wonderful good luck. Every dog in the place", except my 

 mastiff, Dr. ftlsog's mastiff bitch, and Biz, had mange— some 

 of them awful sights. A s..t of setter kennels, put up by oue 

 ot his patrons for his own dogs, was deep in tilth, and except 

 my mastiff kennels, every place was in the same shape. Wc 

 have turned him out and put another man in charge, and in 

 the time we allowed him to get away, we found the same 

 story of a door, provided with a lock and key, and the key in 

 bis pocket, propped shut with n stick, on a kennel containing 

 a pair of boarhoundB, which were sent him because the dog 

 turned on his keeper without any provocation and tore hltu 

 bp dreadfully. If any person wants a good second man to 

 groom and attend to dogs, with some one always over hini, 

 Law la mav do. bul he never can be trusted by himself. He is 

 t In iiarst persistent liar I ever saw; lies when the truth would 

 s.i v, hini better. Anyhow, his career as a keeper is ended. 

 Again thanking vou lor vour kind acceptance of my apology, 

 I am yourstruly, Wm. Wade.

"DO DOGS REASQN?" The late articles on this subject in- 

 duce me to relate what I once saw a dog do in this city. 

 Going home One evening on the street car, a medium-sized 

 I, lack dog, with short legs, was noticed trotting along the 

 sidewalk carrying a piece of breakfast bacon. He stopped at 

 the residence of Mr. B. Tiernau, and finding the gate shut es- 

 sayed to jump to the fence, making the soring from near its 

 fool I'-oni which point be had.no doubt, reached the top 

 -„,„v Utnes before, when not loaded with bacon. He fefi 



l.a-k. and i -, M.tp.ise backed about half way across the 



sidewall took a panning jump and failed again. At this 

 juncture'] was much, interest ,<1 to know what ho would do
