PROGRESS OF TYPHUS FEVER IN LEEDS
15
our painful duty still to have to record an increasein
this town of that distressing malady typhus fever. Since
our last many have been added to the cases already in
existence, notwithstanding all the efforts which have
been put forth to arrest its spread. During the present
week about twenty cases have been removed from Wel-
lington-yard to the Fever Hospital, though every pos-
sible preventative and remediable measure had for some
time pre!iously been resorted to. It is a melancholy
gratification to learn that this seat of disease (Welling-
ton yard) is now entirely cleared of its inhabitants. Mr.
Whitehead, chief clerk at the Board of Works, has
taken possession of every dwelling, eighteen in number,
and it is intended that they shall not again be inhabited
for the space of three months, an interval which will be
occupied in thoroughly whitewashing, cleansing, and
purifying them. From succeeding paragraphs it will be
seen that the Rev. W. S. Monck, and Mr. Samuel Sharp,
surgeon, have become victims of the fever since our last.
We have also to add to the list of those sick, Mr.
Richard Hodgson, assistant to the borough surveyor,
who it is supposed caught the fever whilst attending to
his duties in Shannon-street. The police who were ill
are improving, and the assistant of Mr. Bulmer, surgeon,
is likewise progressing satisfactorily towards recovery.—
