ST Clair, living along the turnpike near
the western base of South Mountain, was
terribly bitten by vicious dog belonging
to Joshua Shoemaker, neighbor living
Just across the turnpike from st. Clair's.-
1t is said that during the temporary alb
sence of Mrs. Shoemaker, Mr.. Shoemaker
locked up the house and went away, and
that when Mrs. S. returned and found the
door locked, she called to St. Glars child
to come to her when she would lift her in
to a window so that she might unlock the
door for her. The child obeyed, and just
as Mrs. S had placed the body of the child
IN the window, the dog came around the

dragged her about the yard, biting and
mangling the little ones ley in a frighttul
