A special from Choices, N. Y, says George
Warehouse, a boy IA years of ags, residing on
watervllct avenue, some six years ago was
bitten by a dog In Lansinburgh. For the past
week, the boy has shown sign, Of hydrophodia.
His condition became alarming, and DIR. Nc
Lean, of Troy, was called, aud administered
all the medicines usually used In
such cases, but at last It was
deemed advisable to smother him.
The boys commissions were Hore dreadful and
ungovernabe than anything the physicians
had seen IN their practice from any cause. A
consultation was held. II was conceded by all
that relief was impossible and that It was
mockcry on the healing art 70 allow the poor
wretch to writhe In such terrible fortunes.
Death was the only relief and all present adj
yised that the boy be smothered TO end his ag-
onies. The physicians feel justified over this
extreme treatment In case where the suffer-
ings were so intense and beyond all medical
control.
