A second dog supposed to be mad
was killed On Sunday; the first one
was killed on Tuesday, July 5th.
Both dogs belonged to Mr. Moore of
Little Warwick, this dog having been
bitten by the first. We hope if Mr..
Moore has any other Gogs he will kill
them at once. The first dog bit
several dogs, but it is said this one
attacked a man on the State-road.
There have been several stray dogs
hanging around town the past week.
surely no dog unaccompanied and
without license should be allowed to
remain at large at this critical time.

WHO DID IT
The Invention OF Distilled Liquors

America may claim She credit of
being the first country TO have put
the ban on distilled liquors in any
considerable area on this globe, but
three nations are arguing for the
honor of having invented the science
of distillatiOn.
China, India and Egypt alike claim
the credit. 1t is absolutely certain
that distilled liquors were known in
the year 1000 B. c. In $50 b. c.,
the great Greek philosopher and
scientist Aristotle made very particu-
lar mention of the manufacture and
effects of distilled beverages.
The Irish claim that st. Patrick
taught them the art of distilling.
However this may be, is is a fact that
during the first English invasion OF
Ireland in ITO, any number of
stills were found which, however,
did not surprise the invaders; be-
cause as early as the sixth century.
a Welsh troubadour by the name of
Taliesin had penned a lay on strong
drink.
1t was called The Mead Song, -
and it's first lines, translated into
modern English, read:
Mead distilled on the press,
LIS eulOgy is everywhere"
