That Mad Dog killed.
Krom the Kverelt Tress.
The mad dog that did so much
damage in Rays Cove last week
was killed by Albert Iliuish and
George Ritchey, near the foot of
the mountain. Before being kill
ed however the vicious brute had
bitten about a dozen head of cattle
and a number of hogs. Seven
head of cattle belonging to Levi
Ritchey were bitten. " Ed. Feight
had several cattle bitten. Harvey
Welsh had Jiis two cows bitten
and he'killed both of them. They
were the only cows he owned. A
low estimate places the stock bit
ten by the dog at$"00.00. This is
certainly an extraordinary record
for one dog. It is very doubtful
policy to kill stock because they
.have been bitten by a "mad dog. '
Cows could be penned and devol
opments noted.
