Father Fox's shepherd dog made a wild circuit of the town, Sunday, biting Mrs Dennis Nash's and John R. Peck s dog. It came into Mir Peck's yard froth- ing at the mouth and, after biting MT Peck's dog, started on. Mr Peck seized his gun, shot his own dog and followed Father Fox's dog as far as Martin Cos- tello's. Mir Costello was in the yard and the dog was within three feet of him, when Mir Peck fired and the dog dropped dead. It is needless to say that Mir Costello was frightened and at the same time thankful for his narrow escape. Father Fox's dog was not bit- ten by E. NJ. Botsford's dog.
