Colonel Jones in conversation last

"The regiment so far has not been
ordered out but commissioned officers
OF companies were requested to ask as
many men as they could readily find,
to report for duty, and on the first
call, eighty-fve men responded. The
serious nature Of the disease and what
it would mean to the community at
large and to them as individuals in
case they come in contact with it, was
explained to them as we'll as the pre-
cautions that should be used They
were then told that they would only be
ordered to perform strict quarantine
duty under arms, but if there were any
who would volunteer to do inspectors
work in house to house duties they
might step forward. To man the
whole eighty-five men advanced. Men
have been coming in fast and there
are now IT'S volunteers, ready for any
work they may be called upon to per-
form"
