TOOK CONCENTRATED LYE
Guthrie, Ok., May 30 - The 2-year-old child of William Simmons of Manchester is very low from the effects of drinking
concentrated lye. Its throat has almost entirely closed, and for many days it has not taken a drop of nourishment
of any kind. (The Dallas Morning News, May 31, 1897, Page 3 - submitted

MRS. PERRY ROSE ATTACKED BY SAVAGE HOG
While Mrs. Perry Rose, living near Shawnee, was picking peaches, a savage hog grabbed her by the ankle, pulled
her to the ground, breaking her leg, and then attacked her, tearing her arm in a terrible manner, and would no
doubt have killed her but for the timely arrival of her husband, who drove the animal away with difficulty. (The Dallas Morning News, September 18, 1899, page 5 - submitted by Peggy Thompson)
