The Martins Ferry Health Beard
met last evening with members Dren-
nan, Smith, ROthermund, Boyd and
Westwood present. A number of bills
were ordered paid, and the following
were rejected: John Frazier, gum suit,
So; c. LeaJherwood, milk; C. Long,
hardware. DR.. w. B. Mcclure handed
in his resignation as city physician,
and Mr.. Smith said that as the small
pOX situation showed a marked i'm
provement and could be handled with
out a large force of officers, and he
thought the Board could dispense with
the services Of ?. Coleman as clerk
Mr.. ROthermund objected to this, as
Coleman was asked to resign as Health
officer during the smallpox epidemic
in favor of DR.. Darrah, with the un-
derstanding that he was to retain the
position of clerk until his term eX-
PRED Mr.. Westwood agreed with Mr..
Rothermund. The matter was put to
a vote. which resulted as follows: To
dispense with Coleman's services, ayes
Smith, Boyd and brennan, nays, Roth
ermund and Westwood.
MIR. Coleman, who was present, made
q little speech in which he informed the
Board that he did not intend to COM
ply with their action. and would make
a fight for the salary until the end of
his term. Many citizens are of opin-
ion that the Board was in error, as
Mr.. Coleman was elected for a year,
and his resignation was conditioned
upon his continuance in the Office of
clerk of the Board.

\ Letter Received Yesterday Which Stated
He Was Suffering from Nervous Prostra-

Yesterday Mrs. Howard P. Wilkin-
son received a letter from Mr.. Herbert
E. Wilkinson, signal officer at indie
pendence, California, and brother of
Howard, stating that the latter was
suffering greatly from nervous pros
tration and was entirely unable to
write. but was very anxious TO hear
from his family and friends here. The
writer stated that Mr.. Wilkinson had
no recollection of leaving Wheeling
and did not know where he was until
he was somewhere in the far West.
He then rested at Carson City for
three or four days, and then went on
to independence to his brother.
This confirms the theory of his fam
fly and friends that he left Wheeling
while not responsible for his actions.
