Singular Humane Conduct Of A Bear On A River Steamer
A river steamer tale recounts Lion the Newfoundland dog saving a little girl Adeline in peril after she fell from a deck. The dog and its master, a surgeon, reach the child as bystanders rally, the girl survives with help from sailors and the mother reconciles with Lion, while the master wryly notes the widow’s remarks. The narrative includes reflections on fate and a later digression about servants, widows, and social perceptions.
