Miss Marie Rose Penfield, who plays

There is one young process server
in New York who is not afraid of
smallpox. The story of his experience
with that disease is told in the pa
pers on file in the City Court, in which
DR.. Wellslake D. Morse sues Miss
Marie Rose Pentield said to be rela-
tive of President Mckinley, for a den.
tai bill amounting to S197S5. The
dentist obtained Judgment by default
The dentist placed the case in the
hands of Lawyer b. w. B. Brown, and
he started an action in the Municipal
Court. Miss Penfield is the daughter
of Frank H. Penfield of Cleveland, O.,
who is said to be wealthy She has
been living in this city with her grand
mother, Mrs. NJ. Penfield Pierson, at
123 West Eighty-ninth st. The lawyer
could not get service on her in the
action in the Municipal court, so he
started a new action in the City court.
All efforts failed as far as serving her
with the summons and complaints
were concerned. Finally Mr.. Brown
engaged Meyer Phillips, young pro.
cess server. In his affidavit Phillips
says that the fourth time he went to
the house servant reported that Miss
Penfield was i'll.
II must see her." replied Phillips
'Well, she has the smallpox, and if
you want to take the chance of get
ting the disease you can go to her
room," said the servant.
''All right" said Phillips, and up
stairs he went. He found Miss Pen,
field in her room, and served the pa.
pers. AS yet he has not shown any
signs of having smallpox, and the case
of Miss Penfield has not been reported
to the Health department.
