John +. TAYLOR of Eureka was in
city Monday morning and remarked
to the BANNER scribe that he was
now convinced that they had the
genuine smallpox at Greenville. He
had seen some of the earlier cases
where they had it in such light form

being smallpox although doctors in
sisted that it was. But in the latest
case, there never was more plainly
marked case of smallpox, and as this
man took it from the other light
cases, it proves beyond doubt that
the doctors were right in their diagno-
sis. Mr.. Taylor said that a strict
quarantine had not been enforced,
and that it was certain that large
number had been exposed, so that
more cases are not improbable.
