few evenings ago, says the Boston Post, a
young man, named Hays, an assistant in the pro-
vision store Of Mr.. Bancroft, went home to his
house, and, putting his hand into closet in the
dark, felt it seized sharply, Upon Withdrawing
IT, he found large rat adherins to him SO firmly
that he could not shake the creature off till he
had killed H. The wound left was inconsidera.
BILE, and Mr.. Hays thought nothing of the matter
until his hand began TO swell Upon calling
medical aid, it was found that the virus had
spread through his system, and he now lies
in very dangerous state In the opinion of the
physician ampufation would be useless, and he
can live but a short time The swelling in the
hand has now subsidized, and it appears as if with

who married each one Of three sisters, and lived
all near FL Dorado. in the county OF Union,

DR.. Waugh, and Henry's with man named
Henderson. Besides abandoning their Husbands,
they left behind each Of them young child.
They rendezvoused it appears in Oreiousas.
Henderson returned to the neighbcrhood Of Ell

of it, and went with his two bro'hers-in-law in

was found dead on the road with twenty.four
buck. shot ranging from the pit of the stomacis
upwards. Waugh returned and was killed, it
