A humorous dog story recounts Ponte the spaniel who attends church with a pious air and a loyal seat near the pulpit. When Deacon Drury provokes him, Ponte bolts and thereafter avoids church, fearing hypocritical counsel. The tale ends with a note on state canvassing and a 1857 act on suffrage, published by Coles Bashford.
