I have no idea what rabies does and what the symptoms are. I have little knowledge of what alcohol can do. Though I believe that Edgar Allan Poe died of rabies.
I belive this because he died within four days of becoming ill. It is more plausible for him to die of rabies because alcohol can't kill you unless you take a very high dose. If that happens, you die almost immediately and Poe stayed away from drinking as much as possible.
He did hallucinate, which can be caused by alcohol, but only when one is drunk. Poe wasn't drunk when he hallucinated. However, rabies causes most victoms to succomb to hydrophobia, fear of water, and Poe didn't.
