Out.
As will be seen by the appended letter
from John w. Brown, of 0ceana, Wyom-
ing county, to DR.. James E. Reeves, Secre-
tary of the State Board Of Health, the
smallpox scourge in Wyoming and Aercsr
counties has about spent its force. Over
one hundred cases have occurred during
the two months in which it has ragged, Of
which forty-seven res suited fatally, and an
immense amount Of suffering and depriva-
ton has been inflicted upon the people Of
the infected district. That the disease is
rapidly abating, as will be seen from the
fact that only five new cases are reported
rs being now on hand, will call forth heart
felt thanks not only In the counties named,
but s1nong the people of the State at large.
Following is Mr.. Browns letter:

ably. There are now only five fresh cases;
the remaining sick all conyalescing and

Thanking you for your kindly and much
needed help and advice, l am, with much
