which he says-"On approaching the Indians
they took position ON rise on the ridge lmme-

HYDRoPHoBIA FROM CAT BITEs-A Young
man James Ray mond, residing at i GOLD
street, Brooklyn, was reported last night to be
dying from bydrophobia, which was caused by
the bite of a cat The unfortunate young man
was suffering the most intense agony, and dur

him. A few weeks ago, while playing with a
cat in store in New York, in which he was
employed, the animal bit him in the hand.
The wound healed up, and no further notice
was taken of it until day OF two since, when
he manifested symptoms of the terrible disease.
A physician was called, but he grew rapidly
worse, and in his present condition cam survive
but a short time.
A German in East Brooklyn also died from
