From the March 6, 1997 edition of The Wall Street Journal. The WSJ reported
that Prince, a 3 1/2 year old Labrador Retriever, living in Portsmouth (on
the coast of New Hampshire) got loose and ate a neighbhor's rooster. He
was sentenced to death by a special police panel as a "vicious"
animal. Animal lovers objected and the new governor, Jeanne Shaheen, in
her first major act, pardoned the dog! Prince wes sent to live in the country,
his life spared.
