Millissa Kirby was So years old.
Wrights death was Unexpectedly
sudden and the attending physician DIR.
Wall, requested an autopsy. Surgeon
Murray decided that while the post
mortem disclosed symptoms of yellow
fever and DR.. Wallis diagnosis was 1ustih-
able under the circumstances, the malaria
complications also disclosed could be
justly attributed as the cause of his
sudden death
In Wednesdays Brunswick special it

A ROUNDABOUT TRIP.
The remains of the infant child OF
Thomas O'Conner, Jr., were 70 arrive
here for interment yesterday, but failed.
They were shipped from Rochelle to Corr
dele on Tuesday last. From Cordele
they were sent to Triton, from Triton 10
Albany, from Albany to ThomasYille, and
from Thomasyille TO Waycross this even
ing, and they will not reach Brunswick
before tomorrow afternoon. The delay
and continued forwarding is the result OF
blunders on the part Of the express COM
pany.
A NrGpo DOCTOR III
DR.. Blair, colored physician, is down
tonight with the fever. Several cases
have developed bad features, and one or
two more deaths are expected
All thoughtful people in Brunswick are
looking earnestly TO the legislature for n
health law which will end the necessarily
ineffective methods Of dealing with health
situation and quarantine, both coast and
inland, and substitute therefor Uniform
ity and effective control under state
health Office, supervised only by health
board
A remarkable fact in connection with
this epidemic is that over 100 vessels have
arrived here and no sickness has devel-
oped on any. Acting Surgeon Robert
Barford and Surgeon Murray are keeping
q strict watch on them
NO NEW CASES AT JEsUP.
Jesup, Ga, Oct. 26.-The status of AZ
there being no new cases to report The
three remaining under treatment are
still improving
Postmaster lFindan and his son are con-
valescent and In all probability will be
discharged in few days.
To the great delight Of every one the
weather changed last night with the
moon, and the sky has been overcast all
day, threatening rain, which will proba-
bly, be followed by the long looked for
frost, and the still more wished for rais-
ing of the quarantine.
The sanitary work Of cleaning and
draining the streets is at last finished,
and the force employed for that purpose
has been discharged. The mayor and
board of aldermen deserve great credit
for the promptness and thoroughness with
which they have carried through this
most necessary work, which, while 1t has
been and will be a great benefit TO the
city, has also afforded work for all tho
unemployed, and so prevented any of that
suffering for want of provisions which is
so commonly found in times of epidemic.
There has not been one case in Jesup in
which it has been necessary to aid
through want Of employment, Work has
been found for all, and all will be paid for
