Mother and Two Children Buried Together...A Mad Dog in a Cow Lot. Article Text: Waco, Tex., March 24.--One day last week, perhaps last Tuesday, a mad dog under unusually severe spasms made a dash on the cow pen of Mr. B. MONEY, four miles north of Moody. Mrs. MONEY was milking when the dog entered the pen and the mad brute rushed straight at her, but she saved herself by knocking him down with a stick. The dog recovered from the blow and next attacked the cows, biting several, and was a length killed by one of the cows pinning him to the earth with her horn. It was an awful scene in the pen when the cows were bellowing with pain and terror and the dog snarling and biting. Mrs. MONEY is still ill from the shock. Near Mr. MONEY Mr. CORMAY resides on what is called the E. A. JONES tract. Last Friday night Mr. CORMAY's corncrib containing 2000 bushels of corn suddenly blazed up and went on burning until nothing was left but ashes. It was an unaccountable fire. Yesterday, in the fifth ward, two sons of Mr. H. P. WINN died of measles, aged respectively 12 and 6 years. This morning Mrs. WINN died, and there is now none left of the family except the father. All day two coffins lay in the front room and people went by hundreds to view the affecting scene. In one coffin the two boys were placed, the youngest with his head on his brother's bosom and the older boys arm embracing his little brother. Beside the casket containing the boys was that of the mother, a beautiful lady. She died apparently of a broken heart. Those who came brought flowers and at noon the blossoms were heaped in profusion in the room. The death of Mrs. WINN and her two sons were mentioned to-day in every pulpit in the city. Sheriff Dan FORD locked up S. E. HINTON his afternoon on a capias issued from the district court of Freestone county, charging him with embezzlement. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ TX-Old-News ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ NewspaperAbstracts.com - Finding our ancestors in the news!
