Letter from DR.. J, W, f kford.

The following was received too late for
last weeks issue, for which it was intended
A. & N COLLEGE. Oct 20, -aS.
EDITOR MACON BEACON In your is,
sue of 18th inst. | note the following:
1t is reported that there are at least
three places in the county where refu.
gees from S~tarkville and the A. & NJ.
College have stopped, and it is the opin.
ion of this Board tnat, with these points
unguarded, it is necessary that an abso.
lutte quarantine be established &c.
Permit me to state that when the first
case at the 4. & NJ. College was regard
ed as suspicious that is, Oct. 3D..
IA cordo Of guards was established n.
round the campus as soon as possible.
and a census of all persons within was
taken; and up to this time no one has
LETT the College grounds except the st.
Louis refugees and those sent to the
county detention camp, On Oct. 1st.
D.. j, c, Robert went to Macon, but
he had been living in Starkville, not on
the A. & NJ. grounds.
All the others who went from Stark.
vile to Noxrbee county We're provided
with health certificates, to which they
were entitled under the regulations of
the Miss, State Board Of Health.
That our quarantine of the infected
place was efficient is proved by the fact
that not a case has developed outside of
the College campus.
The only suspicious clse outside Of the
cordoned area was a negro at detent on
camp, which proved to be typhoid fever,
and his case was regarded as suspicious
only because he had been at the college.
Starkville is nearly two miles from the
college, and the detention camp four
miles, so the town of .otarkyille could
not have been regarded as an infected or
suspected place.
Very respectfully,
