at Hampstead, a suburb of New
York City, last Friday after
noon. In a telegram to his fam
lily here Sunday morning he in
formed them he was taking the
Pasteur treatment and was not
in danger.
The object of this message
was to prevent his relatives
from being alarmed by newspa-
per reports of the episode. A
detailed account of the affair
was contained in the New York
Times which arrived in Chapel
Hill Monday.
Mr.. Graves was bending over
to make a putt on the eleventh
green when dog ran toward
him. He paid little attention to
the animal, merely waving his
putter at it to frighten it away,
Whereupon the dog leapt at him,
tore his white knickerbockers,
and inflicted a long cash on his
leg near the knee. AS Mr..
Graves fell and the dog was
about to spring at him again,
the other golfer, M. A. Kelsey,
struck the dog a terrific blow on
the head with an iron club,
breaking the wooden handle.
The dog turned, snarling, and
ran away across the links. The
two caddies disappeared.
The dog ran to the clubhouse,
routed a dozen men in various
stages Of dress out of a locker
room, and held one man impris-
oned in a closed telephone booth
for more than an hour.
Policemen finally captured the
dog and killed it.
A letter from Mr.. Graves says
that he is playing golf again.
