Stapleton killed Sir Charles Baskerville, by setting his hound on him. The dog was made up to look like a hellhound and it is heavily implied- if not blatently stated? that the dog was starved and possibly beaten. It didn't kill him, though- he saw it and he died of fright, which I think is what Stapleton intended.
No, The hound that killed Charles Baskerville by giving him a heart attack and tried to kill Henry Baskerville was bought by Stapleton so it would look like the curse was real and nobody would suspect him when he tried to claim the baskerville fortune since he was in fact a Baskerville himself. So it was a hound but not the hound from the curse or legend as you might call it.
Sir Charles had a fatal heart attack while being chased by what appeared to be a large "hell hound." This hound allegedly killed his distant relative Hugo Baskerville as well. In all fairness it was Jack Stapleton's hound with phosphorus around the mouth to give it an unearthly appearance that really did him in. Thus the hound of the baskerville's.

Sir Charles Baskerville and Selden, an escaped convict who is killed by mistake because the murderer thinks he is Sir Henry Baskerville. If you believe the curse, Hugo Baskerville (circa 1650) and the maiden he kidnapped are also victims.
The villain who owned and trained the hound in the Sherlock Holmes story The Hound of Baskerville was Jack Stapleton. When confronted by Watson about rumors of a hound, he tells him that the sounds are just the bogs settling.

The Baskerville family tree in the Hound of the Baskervilles include Jack Stapleton, son of Rodger Baskerville II, Hugo Baskerville, Henry Baskerville, and Charles Baskerville. Also in the family tree are Beryl Stapleton, wife of Jack Stapleton.
I have seen several different breeds in different adaptations of the book but the hound is most commonly depicted as a bloodhound.
Sir Henry Baskerville is Sir Charles Baskerville's nephew.
To tell how the curse began.
