Oirhtheria on Hebard Hin.
The three year-oId daughter OF PhiIan-
der r. Chase, occupying the Charles
Wood farm on Hebard hill, died Sunday
morning after a short illness with diph-
liberia.
The family moved from waitsfeId the
middle OF May, and the 18th of June the
child, who had been with some rela-
tives in Barnard, was brought home.
The older boy, who was in Saxioas River.
had come home previously and had nd
some kind Of an illness, which was A
severe enough to necessitate the calling OF
a doctor.
The goth Of June the whole family at
tended the Methodist church in this viii
laRe, and Mrs. Chase Immediately devel-
oped a sore throat. Two days later the
little girls throat was sore and by the
next Sunday only Mr.. Chase and his two
boys were able to be at church. The
mother and the little girl grew so much
worse that Mr.. Chase brought them to
DR.. A. c. Bailey's office and the doctor
sent culture from the mothers throat to
the laboratory at Burlington. Word
came from the laboratory the 29th ult.
that it was case Of diphtheria.
Antitoxin was at once administered to
the father, the two boys and the little
girl, but not to the mother, as she was
practically over the disease. The chiId's
fever lowered, her throat improved and
she seemed to be doing well until Satur-
day, when change for the worse oe-
CURED. She was restless all that night.
but about O'Clock she fell asleep and her
mother likewise.- At z, Mrs. Chase arose,
left the child still sleeping and went into
the kitchen. On returning to the bed
room an hour later, she found the little
girl dead.
How the disease was contracted is not
known, unless the elder boy may have had
diphtheria in light form when be came
from Saxtons River. 1t is thought that
some complication must have contributed
to the little ones death.
Prayer was offered at the house Monday
afternoon by Rev. Joseph Hamilton and
interment was made in Southview ceme-
terry.
No other-cases have developed and no
spread of the disease is anticipated.
