A number of officers and others testified positively that this dog was brought from Iowa ioe Officer of a Michigan cavalry regiment. The attaches were equally Positive that the one at issue was the identical dog which strayed away from Lord Lyons’s residence. As much the er number of wit- necses testified in behalf of Capt.
