Girl saves life by choking rabid dog at Brookland
An 18 year old Miss Maud E Barbour halted a garage dog attack at the Wedderburn home in Brookland last Monday, was bitten on the left arm, and began Pasteur rabies treatment immediately. Brain exam by bacteriologists showed the dog had a well developed rabies case, but officials expect no serious outcome due to prompt disinfection and vaccination. The woman received congratulations for her quick action. A cat bite case involving Frank Baker remains under examination by the Bureau of Animal Industry to determine rabies and Pasteur treatment.
