"On April the 21st, 1910. the gentle
men comprising the Board of Health,
appointed by the Hon. ]. Harvey Spru-
ance, mayor of this city. held meet
ing.
This meeting portrayed clearly to
me that In order to be In harmony with
the rest of the members of the board
l am compelled to do as the Romans
did. that Is to bow to the power that
has created me or fall into oblivion.
on the 2nd OF May myself and the Hon.
Mayor talked the matter over and he
promised me his support in the future.
For this reason l withheld my reslgna-
ton
''The 10th day OF May meeting of
the Board Of Health proved conclusive
ly TO me that can't hold Individual
opinions and remain a member OF the
Board of Health. Therefore I resolved
to resign"
