- Abbott says that during the last 10 years
every case of malaria investigated in Massachu-
setts has been traced to the presence in the

sanitary condition of the Sudbury and Concord
rivers made to the general court in May, the
board stated plainly that there nothing in
the condition of the meadows those river to
generate malaria.
But within the last II years 191 cases have
been reported in the distance of 10 miles along
the river from Saxonvlle, in a population of
about 5OO Few cases, the board says were re-
ported below this point previous to 1895, and not
many until 1893, since which time it has pre-
vailed in Concord and Berica

tends to show that it introduced into these

works IN Billerica the number of cases rapidly d.
minished. while in Concord the effect of the work
