Found His Dog.

Last night Constable Sweet returned to Prof. C. G. Wrentmore the valuable English setter dog which was stolen on Decoration day. On the morning of that day Prof. Wrentmore went to the post office, the dog accompanying him. While at the office a bull dog attacked the setter which ran from the office and jumped on a street car. The conductor put the dog off at Ypsilanti but it was claimed by a traveling man who took the dog on to Detroit, then to the Flats,from whence the man returned to Detroit. From there he went to Dearborn and hired a livery and sent a boy out into the country 12 miles to a farm house where the dog was left. Constable Sweet learned from a conductor on the electric line about the traveling man taking the dog to Detroit and he easily traced the dog over the entire trip. The farmer in whose possession the dog was found claimed he did not know the man who sent the dog there. It is not yet decided whether any farther action will be taken or not. It was a good piece of work on the part of Officer Sweet.
