"The Anglo Celt" Cavan; Thursday, October 21, 1852 DEATHS. Oct. 10, at Lauriston Castle, Sophia Frances, wife of the Right Hon. Lord RUTHERFORD. Oct. 12, at 40 Camden Street, Dublin, aged 54, Madame Marie DeLATOUR, for many years governess in the family of her Excellency the Countess of Eglinton. Oct. 15 at Hassop, Derbyshire, the Earl of Newburgh. DEATH FROM HYDROPHOBIA. - A most melancholy circumstance occurred at the tollgate near Blackhill on Wednesday last. About six or seven weeks ago Mrs. NEWTON who keeps the tollgate, had her little grand-daughter, a child five years of age, who was playing at her home, bit by a hound-dog belonging to one of her neighbours, which was in a rapid (sic) state. It was followed as far as Annfield Plain by a number of men, who destroyed it, but not before it had bitten several dogs on its way. The child was bitten in the face and lip, which bled profusely. Medical aid was obtained, and the child's face healed, no unpleasant symptoms occurring until Sunday, the 26th ult., when the child complained of her head; through the course of Monday she was thought to be a little better, but at night she grew worse. On Tuesday two medical gentlemen attended her, and continued to do so until her death, which took place the following evening in great agony. An inquest was held on Frid! ay last on the body of Mr. FAVEL, when the verdict was, "Died from hydrophobia, brought on from the bite of a dog." Newcastle Chronicle.

BARBAROUS MURDERS AT SWORDS. - As cold-blooded and heartless a tragedy as ever disgraced this country, was perpetrated on Tuesday evening at the townland of Tourlagee, within three miles of Swords. The unfortunate victims were an old man upwards of seventy years of age, named Patrick SMITH, and his sister Margaret, who also completed (her eightieth year. They resided together in a poor cabin, in a very lonely situation on the property of Mr. MANGAN, just halfway between. Swords and Bellewstown, and had occupied the cabin for twenty-two years. The man was employed by Mr. MANGAN in the capacity of herd or caretaker, and received for his services five shillings a week, and was allowed the use of a small garden. His wife is dead about two years, and his eldest sister, who almost bed-ridden lived with him. It is supposed that the crime was perpetrated for the purposes of plunder, as SMITH had the name of having a few pounds by him. The evil mined (sic) person or perso! ns who committed the fearful crime appear to have done it in the most cool and collected manner. There were several small boxes in an inner room, the whole of which were overhauled and the contents scattered about. A frize coat and a couple of pair of shoes were also stolen, and as one of Smith's pockets was turned inside out, it would appear that the deceased persons were searched, though not very carefully, for a small sum of money was found by the constabulary when the surgeon was making the post mortem examination yesterday, (Monday). It was also stated that a son of the deceased, who was a servant, and who died about twelve months since, had saved a little money, which he left to his father, together with a watch. These latter particulars were not given in evidence. County Cavan Newspaper Transcription Project
