Surnames: Jenkins, Choate Classification: Biography Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hkB.2ACE/5620 Message Board Post: Galveston Daily News B Mon., 24 April 1884, p. 4, c. 7 Dog Attack – Rockdale Messenger: A mad dog on Sunday created considerable excitement in the Cooper neighborhood about 9-miles north of Rockdale. It came out of the woods at Dan Jenkins’ place and rushed in among some children who were playing and knocking several down and bit Mr. Jenkins’ little girl severely. Dr. Kennard happened along soon afterward and dressed the wounds. The dog next made it appearance at Mr. Choate’s and bit his little boy. It afterwards bit a Mexican man and woman and was finally killed by the pursuing neighbors. The two children were taken on Monday’s train to Round Rock, near where there was said to be a mad stone. They found the party owning it and had it applied to the wounds. It clung to the lacerated places on the little girl 22 times, each time being filled with a green-looking substance. It would not adhere to the wounds of the boy. = = = = = NOTE = = = = Mad Stone – A stony concretion (as in a hair ball) taken from the stomach of a deer. They have been described as round or oval in shape with a porous surface texture measuring about 3 to 4 inches in size and very light weight. They have a brownish-green color with a highly polished surface. The purpose of the Mad Stone was to cure rabies, hence the name. The procedure for curing the infected patient is as follows: When the person with the bite arrives at the place where the Mad Stone is kept, the stone is boiled in sweet milk. The sweet milk neutralizes the poison from the bite. The stone must be boiled in the milk until the milk turns green. That is how you can tell when all the rabies is out of the stone. After boiling the stone in milk, it is applied directly to the wound. The wound must be bleeding. If it is no longer bleeding it must be scraped until it is bleeding. The Mad Stone will stick to the wound if there is rabies infection in the wound. It does not need! to be tied. When the stone falls off the wound, it is boiled again in milk to remove the poison from the stone. The stone is re-applied to the wound. If it sticks, there is still rabies in the wound. When the stone fails to stick to the wound, the rabies poison is all gone and the patient will not get rabies.

There is a cemetery near there, called the Sharp Cemetery. It is possible that your Reeves is there. Sharp has a population of 75 according to the last census, and Tracy is much smaller---maybe just a few houses left. The historical marker on the Sharp Presbyterian Church mentions Leachville. It says . . . [the church] was divided into the Davilla and Leachville congregations in 1893. The Leachville Church was renamed Sharp in 1902.
