From a Lancaster, Ohio newspaper, March 15, 1925 Lancaster, Ohio - - March 15 Death today ended the long vigil of Nero, a dog who died on his master's grave in a lonely cemetery near here. His owner, Charles Farmer, was shot to death last July (1924) in a gun fight with prohibition officers. Nero followed the funeral procession to the cemetery, where he has kept watch daily, only leaving the grave at short intervals to secure food. All efforts to coax the dog away failed. Once humane officers were about to shoot the dog when the cemetery trustees stopped them. Tonight a boulder marks the grave of Nero. Ministers tomorriw in their sermons will refer to the love and devotion of Nero to his master. ---------- File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/oh/fairfield/newspapers/charlesf39nnw.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.genrecords.net/ohfiles/ File size: 1.6 Kb -------------------------------- End of OH-FOOTSTEPS-D Digest V06 Issue #86 ******************************************
