Surgeon Murray left for Brunswick
this morning. Before leaving he wired
Surgeon Carter as follows; 'Jesup is
doing well. No physicians are needed
Call DR.. Lincoln out" The people here
are very much wrought up over the
matter by the construction they place
upon it. They think that Surgeon Muir
ray wishes to have DR.. Lincoln removed
and in his stead place an inexperienced
doctor. If that be what he means by his
telegram the guards will resign and peo-
pie will leave here regardless of any order
to the contrary. Groups of men are on the
corners talking over the situation and
their determination to have an expert
enced physician if the town has to meet
the expense. Some construe the tele-
gram in another way. Several days ago
DR.. Lincoln and it was sug-
gested that he be given help. The
patients doing well and the work get
ting lighter on the doctor, it is thought
Surgeon Murray meant that there was no
need of another doctor and that Surgeon
Carter might call him out of the line to
confer with him on the situation. A full
explanation from Surgeon Murray would
do much towards allaying the feeling now
existing.
Mayor Steele is supplying the wants of
all that apply for assistance. The town
does not need outside aid yet. the people
appreciate the many kind offers of assist
ance, but refuse uto accept as long as they
have dollar.
1t mas been raining steadily since this
morning and the weather is much cooler.
DR.. Lincoln thinks it will have a bene-
fetal effect. The people are very much
pleased with DR. Lincoln and will have
him remain through the epidemic if he
has to be paid by private subscription.
