A IIORIUI) DEATH,
MR. BILLIE HAMMOND, OE
OGLETt ORPE
Dies With Hydrophobia—The
Fearful Struggles of the Doom¬
ed Man Begging Some one to
Shoot—The Bra.ye Deed of
Mr. Sorrows.
The Athens 15 inner last week coft-*
tab ed a brief notice of the death of
Mr. Billio Hammond, of Ogletliorper
comity, from hydrophobia. A gen-’
tleraan, gave the folowing additional
particulars:
Mr. Hammond, is a son of Mr. Jack
Hammond, and who leaves a wife, and
children nearly grown.
About ono month ago Mr. Ham¬
mond was bitten oil the linger l»y a
mad dog. The rabid animal also at
tacked several cows, Logs and other'
dogs, all of which have since grown'
mad.
This gentleman, however felt no
dread of his horrid fate, and thought
that the timo had been so long that
he would escape.
On May third Mr. Hammond
was cutting oats in Ids field, when lie
felt a severe pain where the dog had
bitten him. Ho kept going and waa
Dually taken with a spasm in the Held..
That night, on his return home bo¬
tch! his family that he had hydropho¬
bia and asked that they tie him secure¬
ly, as lie was afraid that in bis parox¬
ysms of pai:: lie might do some ono
harm. Hut they refused to do this,,
ai.d with great thoughtfulness for Urn
safety of Ids family, Mr. Hammond
remained out doors all right, where
he was taken will) lits, and they ijon
I inued at frequent intervals, His.
suffi-iings must lutvo been Horrible.
Tim next morning lie was ear¬
th d into the house, and again Iregged
to ho tied, hut Ids family objected and
it was not dono. Dr. Huyle was in
attendance upon the poor man, and
did all that medical skill could, but
will) no avail. Friends and noifhbors
volunteers I their services, and every
kindness possible was extended.
Spasm followed spasm, and each sue*
eroding one was worse. In his lucid
moment Mr. Hammond begged some
one to shoot him and thus relievo hint
..f his agony. lie said li is suffering
was more than human nature could
hear, and It would be a mercy to put
an end to his life.
At lust Idsagmy boenmo so gteau,.
and his appeals for pitiful, that it is
reported some one gavo him a loaded
pistol, and the poor man said Iw would
use it luit bis courage had failed him.
In one of his spasms, all the inmates
of the room lied in terror, but a brave
young man named Sorrows, who,
seigeded the p )or victim, and lirmty
held him in his arms until the fit had
passed olf. It was a heroic act, andt
a fearful risk.
All the morning spasm oft or spasm
came on, and it was horrible to nee
the agony of the victim. Ilm suffer¬
ing was intense. In bis rational in¬
tiavals he described his feelings to,
I hose stand vjg amiiiid him, and Mr,
Hammond seemed to forget his own
fate in a dread that ho would hariq
Home member of his family or a frier.d
in his frensied spells.
About one o’clock Friday afternoon
while begging some one to kill him ha
was attacked with another lit, ant|
springing from his last said/
“I reckon this will end the hell I
am in.”
The sufferer leaped out unto the
floor when all those present fled from
the room. They could hear his strug¬
gles and looses, but dared not go to
his relief. At last the soard all died
away, and when the room was entered
again Mr. Hammond was found sit
ling up in a corner, with his eyes widu
open hut dead.
It was one of the roost horrible ends
eve i known in Oglethorpe county.
