Scope and content
Enjoying a spring walk are 9 month old "Monty," an English mastiff; Edward ("Ted") Irving Griffin, son of Tacoma businessman Edwin L. Griffin; and Edwin Griffin's sister-in-law, Bea (Mrs. Frederick) Griffin. The nine month old "puppy" is giving Mrs. Griffin a good tug by the leash. The Griffins were the first breeders of English Mastiffs in the Northwest. So far, their champion "Broomcourt Nell" had produced two litters of puppies. (T. Times 4/22/1938, pg. 14)
