English: This is a the Quebec tale of patience and vengeance called "Le chien d'or" (The golden dog), it is featured on a Quebec city building and reminds people of the story of Jacquin-Philibert killed by Pierre-Jean-Baptiste-François-Xavier in a sword fight. The story say that Philibert's sons avenged their father many years after... Although François-Xavier likely died many years later in India.

Here is the translation of the relief :
I am a dog that chews his bone
While chewing, I rest
One day will come that is not yet here

When I will bite the one who bit me
Français : « Anciennement sur le terrain de l'édifice Louis S.-St-Laurent se trouvait la maison de Timothée Roussel, maître chirurgien. Elle avait été acquise autour de 1786 par Prentice pour en faire l'Auberge le Chien d'Or. » – quebecurbain.qc.ca
