DEATH AT THE FIVE PoNTs.-We have
often, during the past three years, had
cause to complain Of the condition OF the
streets about us. We have tried every
department of the city authorities to ac-
complish the paving of the streets, but
without success. Representatives of the
Board of Health have pronounced the
locality a dangerous nuisance, and have
pronounced the probability of an cpl
demic occasioned by it, and still the street
is unpaved.
Last week parties in our rear com
menced building, and a cess-pool being
uncovered, the result was the sickness OF
one of our boys, which soon developed
into spotted fever, and the death OF the
patient in few hours, and another was
seized next day and died soon after. Inc
cause of the disease is directly traced to
the flthiness of the neighborhood. For.
tunately the prompt action of the Board
of Health in disinfecting the ground
about us caused the arrest of the disease
