 She has made a fine record here, as a volunteer worker in neuro- psychiatric ward in which she be- came interested after the World War.

OF DOGS
KILLS MAN

LONDON G.N.SO.-With a lit
tie cur yapping at his heels, Will
liam HitchingS, an elderly man
of Pennar, Pembroke Dock, his
eyes dilated with fear, ran straight
into the Sea-vaniShed.
He had at last fallen victim
to the obsession that had pursued
him for two decades-an unrea-
soning, unrelenting horror Of dogs.
HitchingS couldn't stand the
sight of dogs, his son. Frederick
George Hitchings. testified at the
inquest.
Back in 1915 two Alsatians had
jumped upon the older man and
terrified him, the son said.
Since then, he had been victim
of a mania-a constant terror Of
the canine world. He would not
enter a house where a dog was
to be found.
The conjunction Of a little cur
barking furiously and the sea
meant death for Hitchings.
Evidence was introduced that
Hitchings suffered from weak
heart and would not have had
long to live.
