Excitement in Branford Yesterday.

A young girl named Florence Newell,
daughter of a well-known Bradford resi-
dent, was badly bitten in the calf of the
leg by vicious dog yesterday afternoon
in that place. She was attended by DR.. T.
E. McAvoy of Branford, and was doing
we'll last evening. The dog was at first
thought to be mad, but subsequent inves-
tigation showed that it was not, but was
excited. The child had been fooling with
it. and it turned on her and bit her. The
affair caused no little excitement in that
quiet place for the time being.
DIR. McEvoy is confident the child will
recover. He is graduate of the academic
department of Yale class of '99 and of the
medical class of '92.
