PELLAGRA IN VERMONT.
Two Persons Died of the Disease During
the Past Year.

Two persons, both males, died of pei
lagra in Vermont within the past year
and half, according to the quarterly
report of the state board of health just
issued. The discovery and history of
the cases are given by the attending
physicians.
Pellagra, or as it is sometimes called,
italian leprosy," is one of the most
loathsome skin diseases known to the
medical fraternity and is supposed to have
been endemic to the growing Sec
tions of northern Italy.
A patient died of a disease diagnosed
as pellagra on Sept. 10, 1912, at the
Waterbury state hospital, and the his
tory of the case from DIR. H. J.. Pache,
health officer of Danville and DIR. H. l..
WATSON, pathologist TO the state hos
pital, are given in the report.
The patient was a man of about 80
years of age and was always of roam
ing disposition. 1t was learned that the
mans life had been spent in dissipation
and that he was irregular in his habits.
For several years he had suffered in
the spring time from sunburned hands,
accompanied by intestinal disturbances.
The first intimation of the presence of
the dread malady was discovered by
Doctor Paehe.
The man had the reputation of be-
ing tramp and his surroundings while
he was in Danville were said to be most
unsanitary.
Signs of distinct mental degeneracy
were noted in May, 1912. When he
was committed to Waterbury his ply
steal condition was bad and he was
emaciated and thoroughly demented. His
memory for remote and even recent
events was practically a blank. Twen-
ty-seven days after his admission he died
at the hospital.
The history of another case submit
ted by DIR. F. E. Reed, health officer of
Salisbury, is given in the report. Dr.
Reeds case was pitiable one inasmuch
as the patient before the discovery met

NEW JURORS CALLED.
Because Orange County Court Expects
Many Criminal Cases.

Chelsea, Dec. 22.-Orange county
court took recess last Friday night
until Monday, January 5 AS several of
the Jurors mad been excused for the
term and as there is likely to be a large
number of criminal cases to be tried
when the court reconyenes, a venire OF
twelve more jurors was ordered and the
following named gentlemen have been
drawn: l.. B. Panton and L. b. Wright
from Brookfeld; i. Ralph Walker from
Chelsea; G.. B. Blake and HI. A. Prescott
from Corinth; c. Wilbur Sleeper and j..
L. Root from Strafford Elra o. Bick-
nell and George Hyde, jr., from Tun-
bridge; John Lyman and C. G. Simpson
from Washington and Henry B. Waldo
from Williamstown.
In the case of state VS.. Napoleon u.
Grant, who pleaded guilty to the charge
OF horse stealing, the court imposed a
sentence of not less than two years nor
more than three years in the house of
correction at Rutland and to pay fine
of fifty dollars. The execution of the
sentence to the house of correction was
suspended and the respondent placed on
probation and given one year in which
to pay the fine.
In the case of state VS.. Chester A.
Kezer of Washington, who entered q
plea of Selling" the court imposed a
sentence of not less than four months
nor more than six months at hard labor
in the house OF correction at Rutland,
and Sheriff Kent committed the re-
spondent to that institution Saturday.
States Atty. Williams prosecuted, and
s. G. Wilson appeared for the respond
ent.
The first state case taken up last
week was state VS.. Alma Mandigo. The
respondent is a married woman from
STAFFORD and was charged with having
committed breach of the peace, by
quarreling, striking and shooting at one
Police Druge. The case was holly con-
tested and uncovered circumstances
which will doubtless lead to further
prosecutions. The jury found the re-
spondent guilty, but the court deferred
passing sentence until later in the
term. Bail was fixed at $500, which
was furnished and the respondent al
lowed to return to her home with her
husband. States Atty. Williams pros
ecuted, and the respondent was repre-
sented by William s. Pingree.
In the suit of Edna Shipley of Ran
dolph VS.. Jerry Menard, the jury re-
turned verdict for the plaintiff to re-
cover $1,000. The next case taken up
was that of Lee Illsley ct al, apis. V.
Oliver Mousley, this case being an ac-
ton in assumpsit. The defendant
pleaded an offset and after two days OF
threshing out the wheat from the chaff
the jury rendered a verdict for the plain
tiff to recover of the defendant the
sum Of s5295 and verdict for the de-
PENDANT to recover of the plaintiff the
sum of $500. William S. Pingree of
White River Junction appeared for the
plaintiff and David S. Conant of Brad
ford for the defendant.

with financial difficulties resulting in the
loss of $500, nest egg which he had
set aside since his marriage in 1908.
The man was laborer and following
the loss of his savings he became morose
and respondent from the demands upon
his small wages through lawsuits and
demands of creditors.
DR.. Reed visited him in April, 1913,
and the patient complained of sleepless-
ness, loss of appetite, pains in the legs
and general weakness. He lost his job
from being unable to turn out a days
work and soon became a town charge.
His fellow workers said that from even
a slight misstep he would fall heavily
on his back.
In August the tell-tale symptoms of
sun burned hands and inflammation of
the hands and face were apparent. The
man died Sept. 90, 1913.
