Protest Against StOPPage of
Trains.
MAYORS OFFICE, !
JACKSON. Miss, Aug. 80, 1873 {

JACKSON, Miss, Aug. 80, 1873
To the Honorable Board of Supervisors and
Board of Health of Kinds County:
MISUNDERSTANDING been advised that
a proposition will be considered by your re-
spective bodies o-day, forbidding the run
ming of all trains through Kinds county
during the prevalent epidemic of yellow
fever, l have, after listening to the protest
of a number of influential citizens, in whose
views | heartily concur, deem the matter oil
sufficient moment TO send by a special mes
senger statement OF some of the reasons
why | think such proceeding as is pro-
posed would be ineXpedient and unfortu-
nate.
In the first place, the supply of provisions
for this place and the surrounding country,
is very limited, and merchants have been
deferred from ordering by the rumors that
trains would be discontinued. Nearly all
the colored population of Jackson still re-
main in the city, and should the fever come,
it is safe that at least $500 or 5000 people
will have to be subsisted, and famine added
to fever, is too serious thing thus to in
vite.
1t will be a great hardship to New Or
leans, cut off as she is from Mobile. and
practically from the river, her only chance
for supplies now being from Cairo to st.
Louis. | am advised that all the towns
along the railroad are very short of sup
pills. and people through the country are al
ready feeling the effect of this state OF
things.
Should the trains be stopped, and the fe-
yer visit Jackson, we could not expect them
tn resume running for our accommodation.
The Boards of Supervisors of Madison and
Copiah and other counties might then be
disposed 20 follow the example set by the
authorities of Hinds.
All attempts, thus far, to violate the
Quarantine Regulations have been made by
parties coming from infected points by the
dirt roads. Those who travel by rail are
we'll Informed of the existing regulations
and the penalties for their violation.
have the honor to be, gentlemen,
Very respectfully, your OPT serv't,
JOHN MCGILL,
Mayor OF the city of Jackson.
About forty citizens, who saw the above
before is was forwarded, signed their names
approving same.
