Doris we have found Jack. for the last week or more every time any of us have gone out in the back yard, there has been a terrible stench & it increased as time when on, so to day Pa & Lena poked [[strikethrough]] around [[/strikethrough]] around with a stick under the little building - & at last Lena got down & looked under the building & saw a dog, it was Poor Jack. I got George over & he got him out & buried him. he said he had been shot so got under there & died. its lucky we found him. he has been gone three months & the back yard was terrible to day & we could not have stood it this summer. Ma.
