1905 Lumberton Town Ordinances
Certain types of dogs, such as bulldogs and bull terriers, were singled out for harsh enforcement.
“It shall be unlawful for any bull-dog … to be allowed loose on the streets and highways of the town of Lumberton and any owner so allowing shall, upon conviction, be fined $25.00,” reads the section on bulldogs, “and any policeman or constable of the town of Lumberton finding such dog… is hereby empowered and instructed to kill such dog.” – The Robesonian
