The tale recalls Tang a Newfoundland aboard Captain English’s small vessel near Bombay Nova Scotia. He warned of storms learned to bark warnings and aided lifeline attempts when the ship drifted toward rocks. Tang guided a line to shore despite crew failures and saved passengers during a deadly gale in the surf with calm, brave conduct.
