Sedgwick's Death.
Hydrophobid's Terrible Work - The
Poor Victim at Rest.

I-OoT tCtWt uJ lttSt.
George Sedgwick, the unfortunate
victim of hydrophobia, whose case has
Deen fully Described in the GAZETTE,
died at the City Hospital, last evening,
after the most terrible sufferings. He
was in the grasp of the fearful spasms all
day with occasional and brief lucid in-
tervals, during one of which after the
most fearful exertious, he swallowed "A
glass of milk, the first nourishment he
had taken since Sunday night. Towards
evening the physicians thought "a steam
hath might mitigate his sufferings, and
had one prepared, but just as they were
about TO place him iu IL he died. His
death was apparently from exhaustion,
As his clio ing moments were not marked
by any apparent suffering. Thus ended
he third case of genuine hyd ophobia
in this city and immediate vicinity with
in the past six months.
Sedgwick's body will be removed to
his late residence on Seventh Avenue,
In West Wilmington, to-day, and will be
buried from there.
Hydrophob ., an affection which physi-
clans frankly admit they have never
been able to check or cure, was former
ly SO rare in its occurrence, that many
physicians doubted its existence as a
genuine, well-founded complaint But
during the past few years it is becoming
fearfully common, and, rs is stated above
there have been three real authenticated
cases in this ciiy and immediate vicinity
during the past six months, viz: Little
Lawrence Carson, of Wilmington, Ma
jor Dob5s, of New Castle, and George
Sedgwick. The case of the little Car-on
boy is regarded by the local physicians
as the first instance of real bydrophobia
known In this city. In this case the dog
that bit the child was known TO have
the rabies, while the patient wa 20
young-berween two and three years OF
age-that there was no posi- bility of his
knowing the danger of his situation and
being affected by fear or terrible imagi-
nation.
DR.. Austin Flint, one Of the best medi.
col authorities, says that In all his expe.
rience only two cases of hydronh nia
came under his personal knowledge. His
carefully collected statistics show that
persons bitten by rabid dogs are not al
ways afflicted with hydrophobia, the
chances of escaping the dread disease
being five, against one of taking II. He
| says that of l25 persons bitten by rablC
dogs in Wirtemburg, only % were atiict
ed with the rabies. DIR. Flint says thai
the bite of wolf Is much more iDfec
tious, a. IN 80 known instances of per
| soBs being bitten by wolves, fully two
| thirds Of them were attended with by
| drophobia, and its inevitable result
| terri ble death.
The horrible frequency of the visits o
the terrible malady in this vicinity Il
awakening the gravest apprehension
| OF the people, and certainly calls loudl'
| TO the City Council for some means o
| protectio u against the hundreds of worth
less ours that constantly prowl aroun'
the streets, from whose POISONOUS jaw
| hydrophobia seems most certain T.
Apring. Such useless brutes should b
killed, az they are of no earthly use /
