was introduced IN 1879 when the en-
peror OF Japan sent n ship with $50
lepers on board, to the Philippines ns n
present to be cared for by the Catholic
priests. Thus the seed was planted.
and an no practical methods ever were
adopted to eradicate the disease, or pro-
vent It's spread, Il has taken flrm root.
