it was an assumption that the dogs chased the calf into the pond. "Assuming this was the case, why didn’t Mr. Eastham make some effort to retrieve the calf? He went in for it after it was dead but not when it was alive.”

Both dogs accused of chasing the calf are small animals, Schumaker continued. “Ours is a small labrador retriever who’s just had puppies and she doesn’t leave them long. She doesn’t chase our cats, she doesn’t chase our horses and she doesn’t chase Mr. Eastham’s cattle when they get on our property,” he said.

“I’ll tell you why Mr. Eastham didn’t go in after the calf,” interjected Margaret Eastham. “It was in about ten or 12 feet of water and Mr. Eastham can’t swim.” She added that there was no boat on the farm.

"The insinuation was made that other calves were lost and our dog may be the reason,” Schumaker continued. He reported that there had also been hints that his dog would be picked up by the dog warden.

“No one’s making any claims as to who’s dog it was,” Luke assured Schumaker. Eastham added that he lidn’t think the Schumaker’s log would have run his calf if tot lead by the other dog. “Anyone who knows dogs, mows that a good one can iften be led astray by bad nfluences,” agreed Wood. The matter of guilt in the alf chasing incident was ropped with no further omments from either side.
