road, and conferred with the mayors, ply
slcians and prominent citizens, all sympa-
thlze with us and will not quarantine q gainst
us unless We have an epidemic. Everything
regarding fever remains in status quo. No
new cases have been reported and the gem

spread but be confined to the families where
1t is at present located. No change has been
reported in the condition of Judge Ray and
his son. Both are very low and not expected
to live.

supported by the testimony of the board Of

ton, we hereby declare that this city is now
in perfectly healthy condition, and that
there has not been single case of yellow
fever in this city the present summer. The
city is in better sanitary condition than for
many years, and the absence of the fevers
which usually precede yellow fever inspires
the belief that we shall escape serious sick
ness. The country will be officially notified
should yellow fever appear.
