MYSTERIOUS PATIENT.
Colored Man Supposed to Have
Smallpox Has Wandered Off.

The smallpox epidemic which visited
this city several weeks ago and has been
playing pranks in lower Delaware, is
still claiming residents as the victims of
its pestilence and although no new cases
were reported at the office of the Board
Of Health UP to late hour yesterday
afternoon, it is a mere matter of con-
lecture as to where new one will turn
up.
1t is said that the dreaded disease was
brought to this city by colored man
named Winn, who visited Virginia at
Christmas and returned about month
later, complaining to his wife that he
was sick. A physician was called in
but how the case impressed him is not
known; at any rate no report was sent
to the Board of Health office to the
effect that it was smallpox Several Of
the patients sent to the pest house lay
the blame Of it at the feet of this man
and residents who have learned the cir
cumstances of the case are indignant.
Winn's wife is occupied during the
week i'll doing washing for several promi-
nent families. Those who were aware
that Mrs. Winn was going about doing
washing when her husband was in such
an extreme state were reticent about the
circumstances until after it had become
generally known.
A case somewhat similar occurred sew
eral night ago. A colored man whose
lame could not be learned was taken to
the office of DIR. ]. Bacon Stubbs, No.
S27 Tatnall street by several friends who
were much alarmed concerning his con-
iition as it was feared he had small
pox. The physician examined the man
and thinking that there was no cause
for alarm SO informed his companions,
and did not report the case to the Board
Of Health. The man left the physicians
house and his friends hired cab and
conveyed the afflicted one to the pest
house. There admittance was refused
there being no space in which to ac-
rommodate more patients. The party
returned to this city and shortly after
wards separated leaving the negro to
wonder about the streets at random.
This was the last seen of ".e man and no
traces of him can be found.
