"Captain Dow of this city was taken quite seriously sick last week. Physicians found it difficult to determine the nature of his disease until it was learned he was the owner of a horse afflicted with the glanders, and then the dread nature of his disease was only too apparent. His sufferings were very acute and his condition pitiable. Some time ago he purchased a horse from a person living in Sheboygan Falls. The captain was quite a horse trader and seldom kept a horse for any length of time. The horse which he purchased at Sheboygan Falls had been exposed to the glanders, but it is not known whether the disease had manifested itself at the time the purchase was made. Captain Dow contracted the disease from the horse, which he groomed himself. The state veterinarian was telegraphed for to make an examination of the diseased horse. It is said there have been a hew cases of glanders among horses in other portions of the county within the last year. Captain Dow died on Monday of this week."
