Show COYOTE FRIGHTENS THE TOWN Savage Animal Finally Driven Away by School Children Unaware of Danger. 1 A gaunt gray coyote terrorized Por-tola, Por-tola, Cal. It was first noticed when it attacked two dogs at the residence of Thomas Dorithy. Mrs. J. Hardy, who was passing at the time, narrowly escaped being bitten bit-ten when the coyote broke away from the dogs and attempted to attack her. The dogs pulled it down again, however, how-ever, before It reached her. During the recess period it appeared at the schoolhouse, but the children chased it in a body and frightened It away. They were not aware of the real danger. A number of hunters are scouring the hills close to town in an endeavor to locate and kill the coyote. |
