Can't tell if the dog is sitting in the remnants of some old rolltop desk by the name of "PHENIX"

You can have a closer look if you go to a higher resolution version that is available at the persistent URL listed in the description. Click on the thumbnail photo and then open the TIFF file.

That made a difference. In the TIFF the dog looks like he is missing an eye, the upright pencils on the front of the desk, and that there is a wooden-handled umbrella leaning on the fence behind them. It may also be shoelaces hanging in front of the dog.

i wish the entire LOC liberary was designed in web 2.0, like getty images or flickr. but altogether - thanks very much for your donations and sharing.

I don't believe the dog is missing an eye, at least I don't see evidence of that.

Poor tyke...looks tired and no doubt hungry.

This is it - done through need not want.

SandyEm [https://www.flickr.com/photos/flyeye] I've added the story relating to this arrest as well as for a later court appearance. It looks like hunger was definitely a factor, as you both suspected.

Thanks for that. So sad though.

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Maine Photography, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group.

My great-grandparents, John Burpee & Mary Mutty and their children lived in Bangor and their home was destroyed in this fire. Shortly afterwards, they left Bangor and took up residence in Lewiston. -- Seen in your News in the 1910s set. (?)

@Brenda Same here, relatives that were forced to move due to the fire.
