REFUSED VACCINATION.
A report comes from Union county OF
the arrest of C. G. Morgan. principal OF
the Walker school, near Waxhaw. for
refusing TO allow County Physician II. d.
Stewart to vaccinate the children and the
principal. such an order having beer
made by the county board on account OF
an epidemic of smallpox IN the neighbor-
hood The teacher refused to allow HIM
self to be yaccnated, BECAUSE he said.
he had had smallpox before and was
immune. The parents OF the children
had directed the teacher not to allow
their children to be vaccinated. Wheh
| the county physician and an assistant ap.
peared. the children began jumping out
Of the windows and getting out the best
way they could. until they were assured
by the teacher that he would not allow
them to be vaccinated. III. G. Griffin,
visitor to the school. was also arrested
for refusing to allow himself to be vac.
cinated. The defense claims that tho
teacher would have been personally liable
to the parents II lie had allowed tho
children to be vaccinated. The law makes
it. on the other hand. Il misdemeanor to
violate orders made by the county boards.
The trial Justice has the case under adj
visement. and 1t will probably come up to
the Supreme Court, either way it may be
| decided.
