Charlotte, April 30—The first death in Charlotte in recent years from hydrophobia occurred today at noon when William Tyzzer, 14, son of Mr. and Mrs. F.J. Tyzzer of West Park avenue, died at a local hospital after a few hours of intense suffering.
The boy was bitten about 30 days ago by a dog but it was not though at the time that the animal was suffering with hydrophobia. At the same time James Brades, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alevin Brades, was bitten. This child is normal today, it was reported. The Pasteur treatment was not given the children at the time, although the parents of the Brades child said this afternoon that this precaution would be taken at once in the case of their child.
The Tyzzer boy was taken ill last night and the malady rapidly developed, his death coming early this afternoon.
