We were agreeably startled about a
o'clock, Sunday morning, by the loco
motive whistle of special train from
Louisville, bearing two learned physi-
clans, Drs. Berry and Wilson, to offer
their assistance in time of need. Their
names will be remembered by a CRATE
full people long after the names of those
who ran away from their duty have
been forgotten.
Drs Wilson and Berry went to work
within five minutes after their arrival
and infused new hope and confidence
in the few people remaining. When
men put their lives in hazard, and come
to help strangers they never saw or
knew, the Lord will surely bless their
efforts.
On Monday DR.. Sam'l L. T. Smith,
assistant surgeon U, S. Marine Hos
pital, of Louisville, arrived on the eve
ming train.
On Tuesday DR.. Frazee, of Louisville
arrived here, and has been visiting the
sick.

There have been no new cases in
town since Tuesday.
In our last issue, we said that there
was difference of opinion as to the
certainty of the prevailing epidemic be-
ing the real Asiatic cholera. Now we
presume there is not doubt. All those
who have remained here have seen it;
and we believe it is the general impress
sion that Mr.. A. w. Bewly, who died
last Friday, had contracted the disease,
while in Tennessee and brought it with
him. This however may not have been
the case. There are other speculations,
among which is (the very likely cause
of the spread of the disease), that of
the wellwater used in the locality
where the disease was most violent If
such is the case We shall certainly be
in favor of destroying the we'll in that
part town and the sooner it is done the
