The SMALLPOX ROCK.
Relic of the Days when incubation
Was Practiccd in the Nutmeg State.

Relic of the Days when incubation
Was Practiccd in the Nutmeg State.
A party of bicyclists from this place,
1nder the leadership of Charles t. Hunt
er, while making a run to Hartford
through Pennington this week, un-
earthed curiosity in the shape of
huge flat rock or ledge in the woods,
covered with names, ages and dates.
None of the dates was later than 1874.
The rock is part of the trap formation
which crops out of the little mountain
20 the southeast of Harrington, on the
old road running to New Britain. Upon
returning Nh. Hunter made inquiries
and obtained from an old resident of
Southington what is probably the story
of the rock.
Itappears from the Southington mans
story that smallpox incubation hos
pital, owned jointly by the adjoining
towns of Southington and Pennington,
stood in the wilderness near the sculp-
tured rock for three years after 1892.
The rock was the meeting place for the
hospital attendants and the messengers
from the two towns. At that time and
for years after, until it was forgotten,
the lodge was known as the smallpox
hospital rock.
Smallpox was held in dread by the
old residents of Connecticut, and un-
til Jenners discovery of vaccination
came into general use incubation was
practiced. Hundreds of people were
inoculated at Observation-Disclosures
hospital and the names carved on the
sculptured rock are those of some of
them. There are thought to be hun
dreds of these inscriptions, as the sur
face of the rock has been uncovered
for a small area only. The dates run
from 1892 to 1894. A bit OF an old Farm
inton letter found by Mr.. Hunter throws
further light on the old pesthouse times.
1t says under date of 1894:
Tho young girls here are all in the
pesthouse. 1 have been up to see them.
They are as thick as toads after rain.
Nancy Hooker and Fanny Cowles have
it the hardest, but they will do well, 1
believe"
A story is told of bride from New
Britain, who was sent during her honey
moon to this old pesthouse to have
smallpox according TO ORDERS" She
was Mary, the daughter of Col. Cad
Stanley, soldier of the revolution, and
had just been married to Oliver Dewey.
The young couple had planned we'd
ding trip to North Carolina, which was
4 long journey for those days, 1t oc-
Cured to the brides father that she
might be exposed to the smallpox while
travelling, and he insisted upon her 60
ing to the pesthouse on the mountain
10 take the disease in its mildest form.
The bride wept and cntreated not to
be separated from her husband, and
the latter eXpostulated, but to no avail.
The old soldier was determined. To
The pesthouse she went and after a
stay of several weeks passed through
The disease in safety. Then she went
on her wedding iourney.-N. Y. Sun.

rhe Color o9 ARCTIC Animals

Nature is very considerate and prov
ident protector to her children. In win
ter many of the arctic animals become
perfectly white and can move over the
vast snowfelds with safety, when if
they retained their summer color they
would be an easy mark for beasts and
birds Of prey, or the hunters rife. The
fox, squirrel, ermine and other crea-
lures of their class have dark fur dur
ing the summer to correspond with the
rocks among which they live.-N. y.
