DOG BITE FATAL
Morgantown, March 24- Hiram Jack, aged 40, a resident of Riverside, this county, is dead after suffering of hydrophobia from which he had been afflicted for more than three weeks. About a month ago Jack was bitten by a dog but paid no attention to the wound until symptoms of the rabies developed. Nothing could be done by the local medical profession and the victim spent his last hours in violence. His actions resembled those of a dog affected. This is the first case of its kind in this section of the state and it has attracted wide attention.
