A Terrible Fate.
Bitten bya Blood Hound-A Mothers
Malediction-iShocking Death from
Hydrophobia.

Bitten bya Blood Hound-A Mother's
Malediction- Shocking Death from
Hydrophobia.
From the New York Herald.
A melancholy, and in many re-
spects singular, death from hydro
phobia occurred yesterday morning
at Yonkers, Westchester county.
The victim, Thomas Lamb, who
was in his twenty.fourth year, was by
trade an engineer and employed at a
foundry in the village named, through
out which he was well known as a
trustworthy, industrious man.
During last winter while employed
in brewery in neighboring village,
deceased was bitten by ferocious
bloodhound, owned by his employer,
and although the wound inflicted by
the fangs Of the brute was not very
severe, the animal was at once des-
patched, and the affected part having
rapidly healed, the occurrence was
soon forgotten by tho deceased. On
Tuesday of last week deceased was
united in marriage with o young
woman whose mother had bitterly
opposed his attentions to her daught-
or. Having by the exercise Of q
littlo strategy realized their matri-
monial wishes, the married pair had
scarcely reached the domicil OF tho
bridegroom when tho mother of tho
bride made her appearance, and
after, on her knees, imploring
cures and vengeance on tho luck
less couple, fervently prayed that hor
daughter might be "a widow in less
than three months"
1t appears that the diaoolical i'm
precautions OF the mother had most
depressing effect on the minds of the
young people, and on tho following
day deceased evinced symptoms Of
the awful malady. the seeds of which
had been sown in his system some
months previously. Medical skill was
rcsorted to withou avail, and on Fri
day the wrctched man, in one
Of his terrible paroxysms, escaped
from his attendants. and after reach
ing some open lots, displayed cat-like
agility in bounding over fences and
otherwise disporting like an animal.
He was subsequently secured by two
Of the Yonkers police. who found it
necessary to cuff the mailman on
arriving at his homo on Brook street
Either the sight or sound of water
would throw the patient into the
most agonizing commissions, and as
the malady developed itsclfhe would
bark like dog, snarling and snap
ping at those who were near him.
lie continued to grow moro violent
and dangerous, so that for many
hours before his dissolution it was
deemed necessary to bind him with
strong cords and while in this condi-
ton his struggles, and howls were
truly shocking until death onsued as
above stated.

the Office of Messrs. Ross & Sturdivant, No
179 Commercial street, yesterday afternoon.
The Treasurer read his report of the doings of
the company for the past year, from which we
learn "that since his last annual report the
steamer Charles Houghton, belonging to this
company, has been thoroughly repaired and
fitted up for business, and has run regularly
and successfully between Portland, Waldobo-

round trips, and gross rec, ipts amounting to
$l7,194.12, being SPILL 81 more than the gross
earnings of last season. Her running expeu-
ses have been about $1,000 more, owing to the
increase in the price Of coal and of wages to
the crew, while the repairs have been about
$1,000 less.
The following gentlemen were elected Direc.

man and w. s. Dana.
Mr.. Buchanan, the engineer, stated that the

the books of the company. The committee are
Messrs. c. R. Milliken and Leander Fobes. 1t
was also voted not to insure the boat but il
stockholders chose to insure their individual

ordered to notify all the stockholders to that
effect At subsequent meeting of the Direc.
