 Three children of Mir. and Mrs, J. ". Petray, living near Potts Station, were bitten by vicious dog one day last week and fears were entertained for while that the animal had hydro phobia. One of the children was taken to party, near Dover, owning mad stone, who, after a thorough applica- tion of the stone decided that there was no poison in the wounds and that the dog was not affected with rabies. The dog was killed, however, and an- other dog bitten by him was confined to await developments. We sincerely hope all cause for alarm has passed.

A subscription paper was circulated on the streets and neat little sum was contributed to re- lieve his pressing necessities. He call- ed upon the DEMOCRAT Thursday after noon and expressed his gratitude to the kind friends who had assisted him. He feels especially thankful to Judge and Mrs. J. T.
