This concludes m interesting artt
Gle on the early health OF Richmond:
According to the statements Of DR..
Carol furnished to the present writer.
the diseases Of Wayne county from
1919 to 1929 were principally intermit,
tent and remittent fever, sometimes
passing into . con9estive form. A man
uscript written In 1874 states, that In
termittent fever, has never been prev.
alent. And an early inhabitant in
formed the writer that mo intermit-
tent fever was known for six to ten
years after the first emigration to this
country" And now word for the Ia
ter periods. find the following in the
Richmond Palladium"
The number Of deaths in the city
Of Richmond during the month Of Au-
gust, 1857. were:
Under one year,
Between three and four years. 1880. I
This is generally the most fatal
month for children In this latitude.
and yet in population Of 5000. there
appears to have been but six deaths
during this month, and all of these
children under four years OF age.
The reader may conclude that this
has been an extraordinary season OF
healthfulness. The writer has kept, q
record Of deaths furnished him by the
sexton and undertaken for the last ten
years, and the results 10 that the num-
Der of deaths monthly. for that period
does not exceed five. In the years
1851, they scarcely exceeded two per
month. In 1853, the deaths were be-
tween three and four monthly. These
numbers include accidental deaths, as
well ~ deaths from all other causes;
and few not citizens. During the vio-
lence Of cholera In the year 1S49, there
were two months in which the deaths
from that cause perhaps somewhat
exceeded twenty.

THRILLING RIDE
WITH OFFICERS
Police Patrol Has Narrow Escape in
Hurry Call TO Revive En-
plOyc at Park.

Forrest Mathewson of Whiting. Ind,
one of the employees at Springbrook
park. was overcome by fumes from
burning kerosene sunday afternoon,
when he was helping fill the balloon
which made an ascension al the park
later in the afternoon. The pulmOtor
was taken TO the park in the police
ambulance, in charge of Officers Cut
ting, Kemerley and Dietl, but
Mathewson recovered shortly after the
accident. making the use of the pull
motor unnecessary.
The lives Of those who rode TO the
park in the ambulance was endanger-
ed by the reckless driving of three au-
toists. who failed to heed the warning
of the siren on the ambulance and per
sisted in getting in the way of the po-
lice car.
A fine exhibition of driving on the
part Of Officer Kemerley saved what
might have been a catastrophe at the
corner OF Jefferson blvd. and Main St,
as the wagon was making the trip to
the park In spite of the fact that
the siren and the bell on the patrol
were going full blast, the driver of an
electric runabout tried to cut in ahead
Of the patrol. and make the turn at
Jefferson blvd in front of the police
car Officer Kemerley swerved the
patrol over to within a few inches OF
the curb. and was then forced TO make
a sharp turn to the left again TO avoid
collision with cars parked in front of
the Whitcomb and Keller real estate
office Only a few inches of space
prevented the ambulance from crash
ing into the electric.
A minute later, while the wagon was
going along Vistula av., another acct
dent was narrowly averted by some
clever driving on the part of Officer
Kemerley. One machine was going
north on Vistula, while another was
going south Just the ambulance
approached the two cars. both drivers
swerved in towards the center of the
street leaving barely enough room for
the patrol to pass between. there being
less than n foot of room on each side
of the police car. No arrests could be
made for careless driving, as it was
impossible to learn the numbers of
either of the three cars.
