s.. The family Of Leonard Gewter, living
near Elgin, on Greenwood prairie, Wa
basha countyhas been suffering from a
mysterious disease, which on investiga-
ton proves to be trichinosis of very
pronounced type. The members of the
family have been eating more or less
raw pork during the winter. Mr..
Grewter died of the disease few days
ago, and several members Of the family
are not expected to recover. The re-
ports that have got abroad have been
greatly exaggerated. It is understood
that the infected pork was brought
from Wisconsin by the family when
they moved to this state last fall. !
