MAD DOG BITES COW
MADCOW BITES MAN
James West of the Trowbridge
Farm, Pomfret, Undergo
ing Pasteur Treatment
Rabid Dog Believed to Have Come
From New York State

As the result of slight abrasion
on his hand due to being bitten by a
COW he was giving attention because
it appeared to be sick, James West of
the Trowbridge farm, Pomfret, is un-
dergoing the Pasteur treatment as a
precaution against rabies.
Some days before the COW bit West
a dog bit the COW. Following the at
tack of the dog on the COW West kill
ed the dog with a club. Later the
COW showed signs of being sick and
West was treating it when the COW
nipped at him and grazed his hand
with its teeth, causing a slight scratch
DIR. Hutehins, veterinarian, was
called, and it was decided that the
COW had rabies. West then sought
medical attention and the wound was
cauterized and he is now undergoing
the Pasteur treatment.
The matter was called to the atten-
ton of the commissioner of domestic
animals, James NJ Whittelsey, who
has stated that the COW had positive
symptoms of rabies and that it was
undoubtedly a mad dog from New
York state roaming across the state
line that carried the rabies to the
COW.
The dog was without collar so it
could not be told positively where it
came from.
