Excerpt from My Dogs in the Northland
When a lad I was not allowed to keep a dog. My father in his early manhood days saw a man smothered to death between two great feather beds because he was a. Hope less victim of hydrophobia, caused by the bite of a mad dog. So no dog was allowed in our home.
Fortunately for us boys, or rather for the dogs, we (and there were only seven of us) were all very fond of these prohibited animals, and were ever ready to lend our jackknives or skates to any neighbouring boy if he would only let us play with his dog.
