Fort Brown Lagoon in
Unsanitary State.

Lieut.. H. G. Leckie of the 10th
Infantry has been here since Sun
day having been sent from San
Antonio to investigate the reported
unsanitary condition of the old
lagoon in Fort Brown, complaint
of which had been made to head
quarters of this department at Fort
Brown.
Since the post was abandoned, the
sluice gate which regulated the
water in the lagoon has fallen into
a bad state, and hence the water
in the lagoon has become stagnant
and unsanitary.
Lieut.. Leckie is well remember
ed here, having been stationed at
Fort Brown for several years, and
has many friends here who are
glad to see him again.
