FIVE SMALLPOX CASES.
Have Developed at White River Junction.
They Are Mild in Form.


White River Junction, May 25.-Five
cases of mild smallpox have developed
here but are well cared for SO that no
general epidemic is feared. About year
ago Frank Billings had well developed
case and was brought safely though and
considered immune. When the disease
broke out at Dewey's Mills last winter
he was requested to 90 there to set up
a stove at house where the patient
was confined He went but took every
precauton that modern science pre-
scribes. His outside garments were left
there and burned and mis- other cloth
ing thoroughly d5sinfected.
In spite of these precautions form
of the disease developed in him so mild
as not to be detected, and he kept about
his ordinary affairs. Later his house
keeper, Miss Mamie Lawrence, took the
disease. Other victims were Bert Bill
lings, who also had the disease at the
time his father first had it, and John
Pierce. Boarders at the house took alarm
and scattered. OF these one only has
since come down with smallpox, but
there are four suspects, one of whom,
refusing to be vaccinated, has been or
dered into quarantine. Not many cases
are on record, it is said, where a per-
son has had the disease the second time
and no criticism of the health officers
is in order for lack of care.
