this County informs us that it is currently
reported and admitted in Grcenvillc by
citizens there that q negro recently came to
that city with genuine case Of smallpox,
and that he has been removed about two
miles above the Air Line Depot, where lie
now lies i'll with the disease. 1t is thought
that sufficient precautions nave been taken
to prevent the spread Of the disease. We
have seen nothing Of the matter in the
Greenvile NeWs, and therefore cannot
vouch for the correctness of the report
but in matter of such vital consequence
to the public rs the existence of smallpox
in our neighboring city, we feel justified in
stating the report and asking for the facts
about the alleged case.
