Partial Text
Dr. Charles Cleland came into Kane for medical supplies and introduced himself to the late J. Harry Gillis, pharmacist, at the Temple Pharmacy. As Mr. Gillis filled out the order he turned to another man standing by and to Dr. Cleland, he said "I want you to meet one of our local physicians. This is Dr. McCleery."
Before Dr. Cleland could say anything, Dr. McCleery studying a bottle in his hand remarked "Dr., this acriflavin is the best remedy for wolf bite I have found."
The startled young doctor was thinking of a fast trip back to Pittsburgh when he learned Dr. McCleery had the captive lobo wolf pack.
