friends confined In the house since the
death OF Mr.. Waite, as after an investl
CATION II had been decided that he did
not die Of yellow fever.
II is now nineteen days since Capt
Northup died, more than ten days since
Mr.. Waite and Ellen Wood were talsan
sick and four days since they died. Had
these persons or any Of them died Of,
