Word was received Saturday that
four horses belonging to Dr. Hogue
had been found dead in an old barn
in the pasture near the Sand Greek
church. The horses must have gone
in there to get away from the flies.
and the door went shut, keeping
them in. Three other horses were
in the house, but were alive, though
very weak. No one knows just how
long they were in there But the
owner had been looking for them
for three or four days. Two of
them had apparently not been dead
very long. 1t is certainly a sad
affair to think of the suffering which
the poor animals must have endured
before death relieved them 1t is
also quite a loss for DR.. Hogue.
