Germs Of Smallpox Carried to
paWtucksl Woman by Husband.

Though weeks have passed since the
Smallpox hospital at Pawtucket was clos
ed. and the city affirmably declared TO be
free from the dreaded disease. another
smallpox case has been discovered. The
victim is Mrs Mary Harris OF 81 whit
man street. Mrs. Harris is the mother
Of children Until within 10 days ago
her husband, Arthur Harris, has been em-
Moved In Woonsocket. IL is supposed
that the man brought the disease from
Woonsocket In his clothes. The authorl-
ties are looking for him at present.
Mrs Harris home rs IN the vicinity OF
the city where the disease was formerly
prevalent Some time last week she was
taken III and Dr. Ruest called In To at
tend her Yesterday afternoon he came
% the conclusion that the woman was
suffering from smallpox. Health officer BY
ron w Richards was notified. Upon eN-
animation he confirmed DIR. Ruests dag
nosis that the woman had smallpox.
pr Richards Immediately began inves-
tigatinR for the source OF the disease.
He was told that Harris worked in the
lorraine mills all last week or since his
return 10 Pawtucket. Previous TO that
time the man had been employed In
woonsoclxct. and as Mr. Harris Is suffer
ing from the continent type OF smhllpoN'
which is different from that OF all the
previous patients In Pawtucket, II Is be-
ileved that the disease was brought from
Woonsocket In her husbands clothes
Mrs. Harris Informed the health officer
that her husband wore the same clothes
while at work in the Lorraine mills as
he wore At Woonsocket. Dt. Richards
also learned that while at work in Paw
tucket Harris went by the name OF Henry
Miller. From this II may be agreed that
he knew or guessed the nature OF his
wife's illness.
AZ a special meeting of the board Of
aldermen. which is the board of health
for pawtucket ~ was voted that DR.
Richards be given FUN authority 90 DO
whatever he thought best In the matter
Dr. Richaros does not advise reopening
the hospital for contagious diseases whore
the smallpox patients were formerly
cared for.
Instead. Mrs. Harris will be kent In her
present home. upon which a strict quar-
sntine has been placed. All Of tho Har-
RS children have been vaccinated with
she exception Of the youngest, small
baby.
