He proceeded to beat it with a club until his sister brought him a gun, with which Dick killed the animal. Carl Pratt took the dog to Tygh Valley, from which place Mr. G. R. Burtner shipped the the head to Portland to be exam ined for rabies. All the dogs bitten by the strange purp were killed. This happened at Wamie.
