Tale of a London clerk who loses his position when his Portuguese trading company fails. He resolves to shoot himself but to shoot his dog first - then discovers he has used the only bullet in the gun on his dog. In his frustrated walk back to his boarding house he encounters a friend who offers his the very job he needs. His dog saved his life and he honours the anniversary of its death each year. (PB)
