Worcester Daily Spy

Mad Dog.—A mad dog was killed at "floating bridge," Long Pond, on Saturday. The animal was seized with the paroxysms while in a wagon on his way to his owner's farm, near Shrewsbury, and came near doing mischief before he was killed. We notice that our streets are daily infested with curs, not one of which carries the protection to the public, demanded at this season of the year, in the shape of a muzzle.

The cost of a muzzle is not great, and even if it were, no man who has the slightest regard for the lives of his fellow men will suffer his dogs to roam at large without one. No man can be deemed a good citizen who disregards the injunction to muzzle his dog during the warm weather. We hope the proper authorities will see to it that our streets are free of unmuzzled dogs, at least, during the "dog-days."
