Mr.. o. P. Hicklin, farmer living eight
miles east on Thirteenth street, brought
his horse and sheppard dog in to DIR.
Phillips to see if anything could be done to
ward off hydr0phobia. After getting a
negative answer he took his dog to the
pound and had him shot and procured
Winchester rifle to kill his horse when the
first symptoms of hydrophobia appears.
His horse and dog were bitten yesterday
by a dog that Mr.. II. thinks there was no
doubt about its being a mad dog. He was
a peculiarly marked spotted sheppard dog.
He came from the west, following the
wagon road, turning into the farm lots
and swapping anything he came across.
He passed through Mr.. Smiley's stable
but luckily his horses were all out of the
stable. He bit two of Mr.. Smiley's calves
He bit Mr.. Fennel's dog that WAS lying on
the porch. He would snap his victim and
trot along till he came TO another.
Several of the farmers in the neighbor-
hood were attracted by his strange actions
and armed themselves to kill him. He
gave them about a three mile chase before
they killed him. In all the chase aud also
before be was molested he never changed
from the trottlng gait. No one knows
