Leicester Won’t Stay in the House Amid Hoof and Mouth Fear
Leicester faces hoof and mouth disease as officials inspect dairies after four infected cows found at John P. Stevens farm. State and federal veterinarians, led by Worcester inspector C H Paquin, quarantine the herd and plan to kill the entire Stevens herd valued at over 1500 dollars. The town remains quiet though alarms sound, and Stevens must cull the herd and avoid cows for six months.
