TO come 10 the gate and take any
thing movable. Conversations between
the gentlemen in quarantine and their
friends are carried on just as you are
talking now. | have never allowed any
one but DR.. Wood to come inside. He
is the examining physician, and has
right TO CALI
When questioned regarding the state
men that ladies had called there and
been entertained within the enclosure
Guard Carlyle said there was not a
word of truth in it. Questioned re-
garding the story that ladies in BIZ
cycle party had stopped and shaken
hands with some of the gentlemen,
Carlyle said he saw the ladies on the
road, at the Diamond Head end of the
hedge. He saw that they were demon
strative and cautioned them against
coming in the grounds.
Messrs. Macintosh and Marx vol
unteered the information that the la
dies had spoken to them, and that they
were on opposite sides of the hedge
zone of them threw lei at me-" said
Macintosh. "and l put it on. Then
Marx and / shook hands with the la
dies, and the guard, noticing it, eau
toned them to get away"
That said Minister Cooper. sis
the only act that has reached my ears
since we have been here that is open
to criticism
The reporter suggested that men in
quarantine had no right to get in ca
noes and paddle themselves over to
some other part of the beach and be
entertained by persons not in quaran-
tine. Mr.. Macintosh started to ex
plain the circumstances of this, but
ctnnnp6 nv Mr. Castle
'If you will allow me- he said, 81
will tell you just how that happened
I think I know something about it.
When we went into quarantine, / asked
Dr. Wood just how far we could go and
what we could do. He told us that if
any one came here, we should get on
the windward side when we were talk
ing to them; that we could go out in
our boats or canoes-go where we
pleased-eXcept to land on the beach in
front of any other property than this.
The boys-Doyle and Macintosh
went out in a canoe soon after we came
here and upset. They ran their ca
noe ashore for the purpose of getting
the water out of her"
"And, goodness me-" said Mackin-
tosh, eve didn't go on any mans lot.
When we got a spill we pushed the
canoe up near the bridge, so as not to
go against the instructions of the ply
sician. We were there only long
enough to get the water out then we
came home. To me the whole affair
has been exaggerated by a lot of gos-
sips and taken up by man who wants
to show a little authority. The bicycle
riding amounted to nothing, for there
are hours and hours during the day
when not a soul passes the gate. We
of prisoners, and I can't, for the life of
me, see where we have been proven
guilty of a violation of a rule, with the
single exception of when Marx and I
shook hands with the two ladies'"
When asked if they had received any
communication from the Board OF
Health. relative to Mr.. Browns re-
port, Minister Cooper replied:
1--WE have not. DR.. Wood came here
last night, as usual, to learn our con-
dition He took our temperature and
examined our arms. When he was
through with us, he questioned us re-
garding Browns report, and our an
swers were the same as we have given
you, but not so much in detail"
At the close of the interview, and in
response to a question, the irrepressi-
BILE Doyle said: I'm the only one upon
whom the vaccine took hold, and my
scab is daisy. When | am through
with it, I'm going to send it to Brown
as an evidence of good faith
