TJPMTS-SHORT STORY Tiger, the Bravcct Little Dog in Spring City, by Margaret H. Allen The last two paragraphs were emitted in 1988 VOL. 20 cor.tinued from page 91¦ The story is true and given by Barney Hyde 94 years old, (• • • it hit him on the head, knocked him down, and killed him.) The boys said, "There's your little dog. He's dead." Of course I felt very sorry about it. I cried. One boy said, "Ify father makes coffins for people. I'll have him make a coffin for little Tig." And I said, "Oh that would be nice." Another "boy said, "My dad is a painter. I'll have him paint a sign to put at the head of the grave." I thought that would be very nice. We got the coffin, put the little dog in it, we dug a hole for the grave and the man came with the sign that said: "Tig the Bravest Little Bog in Spring City." We put the sign in the ground, put the little dog in the grave and covered him up. The marker remained there a long time to remind us of our brave little friend. WAGON ROAD CAMP July 1988.
