by the county board of health, but
as to my going there to see il DR..
Graves was correct in his diagnosis
is not true, for did not know, mel
Their did l care, what his diagnosis
| was. 1t had come to the knowledge
| Of the board of health, of which |
am member, that there was and
had been for some time an epidemic
Of some kind of an eruptive disease
and it was our duty and we certainly
owed it to the people to do our ut.
most to stop Its spread, be it small
pox, chicken pox, measles or what
not. Can it be said of DR.. Graves
that he was doing anything to stop
the spread of the disease? He had
not even notified the board of health
and in failing TO do this he violated
the law, and the people with this
disease broken out on them were
going around on the streets. We
cant cesure them, for they had been
told it was nothing more than
''malignant chicken pox.' "a rose
by any other name would smell as
sweet small pox by any other
name Is just as dangerous. 1t Is
possible for people to have small pox
twice, bat is not probable. Maybe
those cases DR.. Graves speaks of had
the chicken pox the first time. There
is not anythink extra ordinary about
not having death in the 100 cases
in and around Dycusburg for they
have had elk or seven hundred cases
in Union county and not single
death that | have heard Of.
Small pox is cold weather dis.
ease and the reason it has been so
ght has been due to the warm
weather, and now since it is, or is
likely to get cold, am afraid the
good people of Crittenden will begin
TO wake up to the seriousness of this
disease.
DR.. McCormic has seen three or
four thousand cases of small pox
and says he knows case when he
sees it. | have seen abont fifty
cases and think | know 1t when |
see 1t.
DR.. Graves said in last weeks
issue that no did not believe 1t was
small pox, but did believe it was a
malignant form of the chicken pox.
Malignant means disease dangerg
Gus TO life and in 100 cases OF ANU
malignant disease instead of havna
20 or 30 deaths as he says we voulsN
have had had it been smallpox.
would have had at least 20 deaths
for IN malignant diseases the moi
tality runs high, He says it is a
duty to protect his people, yet
own words for it, he was allow
them to mix with each other, W
they had = malignant disease "a
ease dangerous to lfe). l had raj
have the small pox anytime thar
have a malignant disease. This
ease | saw down there reminds
OF the old Irish woman who had b
vaccinated ana it was going rig
hard with her, so che sent for pnN
stefan aad he told her she had tHI
''veraloid." She said you can n
