Bitten By A Rat

Bitten by a Rat.

SIOUX CITY, Ia., Jan. 9.—Anna McGraw, a waitress at a hotel in this place, is in a fair way too loose [sic] her life, or at least her eyesight, as the result of a rat bite on the eyelid. The girl was sleeping in her room at the time the injury was inflicted. She was suddenly arouse by a sharp pain over the eye, and sprung up just in time to see a large rat leap to the floor and vanish in the corner of the room. The sufferer was nearly prostrated by the shock. Inflammation set in and physicians fear that blood poisoning will follow.
