his presence has been noted for sew

pest house. where those suffering
from smallpox are detained. He has
made friends with some of the pa
tients at the county institution and
daily he seeks their company in the
hope that he may share their afflic

he is successful we may find great
numbers in search of the smallpox,

themselves against rheumatism.
