A Reincarnated Dog Seen in St Augustine Society
A traveling man shares a tale from St Augustine about a stray dog named Towser who shifts social status with the seasons. In summer he plays with common locals, while in winter he attaches to a wealthy New York family, attending social events and dining with a kindly, plain woman who feeds him. The dog behaves differently with elites, avoiding ordinary acquaintances and displaying wary manners until a wedding wind. The Indianapolis Journal reports this curious observation.
