Guthrie, OK July 4 – A savage bulldog entered the home of Don Manning at Durham last night and took from the cradle and killed a 2-year old child of Mrs. Mannings which had been left asleep in the house by its mother. The father, working nearby, responded to the child’s crying, but arrived too late. The child was horribly mutilated. – Palestine Daily Herald
