| TRUELY THE STORY OF A "MOST LOYAL" AKITA | ||
| Hachi-ko continued his daily ritual even when arthritis and age slowed his pace. Almost ten years after his beloved master, Hachi-ko was found dead on the very spot at the station where he had kept vigil for so many years. A day of mourning was declared. He was almost 12 1/2 years of age when he died on March 8th, 1935 having been born October 4th, 1922. The little creme colored puppy had been a gift to the professor from one of his students at the University. | ||
