In view of the gravity of the surround
ing circumstances and the shadow of death
which he says hangs over an afflicted
family, the tone of DR.. Davls's communi.
cation is in very bad taste. so much so that
the publication of his statement of facts
in such connection is justified only be-
cause it is supported by the certificate of
six reputable ply sicians who are above
the suspicion of lurking in the shadow of
death to indulge in unseemly professional
animosities. If Drs. Brown and Hess did
make mistake in diagnosing the disease,
DIR. Davis should have remembered that
the honOred profession to which he belongs
cannot claim infallibility even in its Oldest
members, and that he who ventures to
throw professional stones should first
make sure that he himself does not live in
a glass house.

THE DISAGREEING DOCTORS.
MORE COMMENTS ON THE sMAL.FON
CASE.

DR.. Brown vindicates himself aud the Board
of Health.
EDITORS OF THE INTELLIGENCER On
Friday afternoon DR.. Davis called at my
Office, when told him of my visit to Mr..
Mercer's house in company with DIR. Hess,
and l distinctly stated to him that ex-
pressed no opinion concerning the nature
of tho disease, and that DR.. Hess alone
was the authority for tho statement of "no
smallpox; and in tho evening, in order
to prevent any misunderstanding, l wrote
DIR. Davis letter, repeating aud empha-
sizing the above assertion, and saying that
the item which had appeared in one of the
evening papers to the effect that
the board of health had investigated
the cases and pronounced them not small
pox, was incorrect. Notwithstanding this,
DR.. Davis in his article on Saturday even
ing persists in repeating the misstatement
and upon it bases personal attack, thus
knowingly aud Intentionally misrepresent
ing me which attack would fall to the
ground rs without foundation, did he not
distort the facts for his own purpose. If l
may judge from the expressions of opinion
concerning DR.. Davis l have heard during
the past few days, have no fear that my
reputation for honesty and veracity would
suffer by comparison with his.
DR.. Davis hastens to take credit for re
porting the existence of smallpox to the
board of health; but if you will allow
me to explain how he reported it, per
haps it would not add much to his credit.
On leaving Mr.. Mercer's house, after his
first visit, DR.. Davis passed through th=
| P. r. r. depot where he publicly pro
J claimed the existence of smallpox. He
| then went to the Globe hotel drinking
saloon, where he again openly declared
that there were several severe cases OF
smallpox in town. This rumor spread
rapidly, causing much alarm, and the next
morning reached the ears Of Mr.. Marshall,
one of the most jealous members of the
board of health, and he Immediately called
on DR.. Davis to ascertain the truth Of the
report, and it was confirmed by that ply.
sician This was the manner in which he
"notified the board of health through
James II. Marshall, esd, a member of the
same" To put it mildly, DR.. Davis acted
very indiscreetly by thus publicly pro.
claiming the existence of a loathsome and
contagious disease nor would consider
the starting of a rumor which reached the
ears of ono of its members, as a notifica
tion of the board of health
Although I expressed no opinion con.
corning the disease, as did not examine
the cases, may say that l would prefer
DR.. Hess's opinion to DR.. Davis's but a
public correction of the statement that the
board Of health had declared the disease
to be not smallpox is due to the members
of the board and myself as secretary.
If there is any wisdom in the adage
which teaches that those who live in glass
houses shouldn't throw stones. then DR..
Davis ought to he the last man to refer to
any other physician as an irregular practi-
toner or a violator of the rules of profess
sional etiquette.
