~HE last few cases or typhus

we have been able to trace practically
all Of the cases that have developed to

cases were recent arrivals from the
other side Of the river, indicating that
the work that has been done by the
various health officers in the districts
where the earlier cases developed and
in districts where the disease might
develop, has been effective. There is
no disposition to cease vigilance, and
