WOMAN SAVED
BY ASSISTANCE
OF FAMILY DOC
Lebanon If it had not been for
the friendly assistance of the fam
ily dog and the timely arrival of
her husband who had been hauling
hay at a neighbor's, Mr. Harvey
Boggs, resident of the Gore district,
would have probably lost her life
late Wednesday afternoon. The
woman entered an enclosure at the
rear of her farm home to take wa
ter to a young heifer who had a
small call.
When she entered the corral the
heifer attacked her with her horns,
knocking her to the ground and
battering her about the head and
chest. The dog nipped at the heels
of the cow which diverted her at
tention and played a part In pre
venting her from being killed.
Her husband drove into the barn
yard Just as the remainder of the
cows in the pen started to rush
on her.
The victim Is resting easily and is
under the care of a doctor.
