GERMAN PIONEER DOCTOR {;
HIS SONS PHYSICIANS

Two noted doctors Of ycstcryear
were brothers, Robert and Richard
Gerstell, and their father, DR. Arnold
Frederick Gcrstcll, who came to
America in 1910 after graduating in
medicine at the University of Got
tingcn in Germany. Their mother was
Hannah Cresap of the colonial Crcsap
family.
There has one or more physicians
in the Gcrstell family since the four
tccnth century, d record to this effect
still standing in the archives of the
Cathedral in Brunswick, Germany,
where DR.. Arnold Gerstcll was born
in 1915.
On his arrival in America, Dr. Ger
stell found the Baltimore and Ohio
/ Railroad in course of construction the
railroad having reached Cumberland
at the time he discmbarkcd from a
sailing vessel in Baltimore. The
/ Chesapeake and Ohio canal was also
in the course of construction and "thc
old Doctor as he was known later.
established himself at Wcstcrnport,
Md, which location had been selected
! by the canal engineers as a point of
/ its divergence from the Potomac
waters in its projected climb over the
Alleghanics by way of Georges Creek
and the headwatcrs of the Castleman.
But the railroad outstrippcd the
canal, reaching Piedmont. w. Va.
opposite Wcsternport in 1851 and it
was in that year that Dr. Richard
Gcrstcll was born in Westernport at
the time his father was surgeon in
charge on the construction work of
the railroad in its passage over the
mountains from Piedmont to Wheel
ing.
Richard and his older brother,
Robert, took up their fathers pro-
fcSsion and both graduated in medi-
cine from the University of Mary
land in 1875. DR.. Richard began ac-
tive practice in kcyscr, w. Va, the
same year. With the opening of the
Elk Garden mines in 1881, he located
there, remaining until 1895 when he
moved to his farm at Gcrstcll five
miles below KcyScr on the Potomac.
The following year he resumed his
practice in Cumberland. DR.. Richard
Gerstcl later engaged in the coal
business, from which he retired to
his farm at Gcrstcll. Later he bought
property in Keyser where he died in
January, 1888.

Careful Handling of
Wild Rabbits Urged
May be Infected With Tularemia
Which Human Beings Can
Acquire

wild rabbits should be handled
with great care" Dr.. r. H. Riley, Di-
rector of the State Department of
Health, warns all Marylanders who
hunt, trap or prepare rabbit meat for
the table. THE innocent looking ami
mails may be infected with tularemia
or rabbit fever. Human beings can
acquire this serious and readily com
municable disease through contact
with the fur or uncooked meat of in
fected rabbits.
Fifteen cases Of this disease arc
known to have occurred in the coun-
ties Of MARYLAND in 1913 and one case
was reported in Baltimore City dur
ing that year. Although this is not
considered a high incidence of the di-
sease, it does indicate that consider
able number of the wild cottontails in
this State may be infected. There
fore. in order to avoid a possible case
of tularcmia certain precautions arc
advised
''For his health's sake the hunter
should take only the frisky rabbits
that dash away as he approaches. An
animal without the energy to scampel
away when he senses danger is likely
to be sick himself and transmit his
disease to anyone who handles him.
After an apparently healthy rab-
bit is caught the cautious hunter OF
trappcr should handle him only with
the utmost care. 1t is safest to veal
gloves instead of touching it witt
bare hands, especially if there is ever
small cut or scratch; and hands
should be kept away from the face
mouth and eyes. All fur, refuse anc
paper that has touched the ANNA
should be burned. Thorough HAND
washing is also in order as soon as
the meat has been prepared.
proper cooking is the final safe,
guard Regardless Of the dish being
prepared, at least twenty minutes
cooking at boiling temperature is nee.
essary to destroy any disease causing
germs that may be present.
with these precautions the tempt
ing fried rabbit rabbit pie and Other
favorite dishes of the season can be
enjoyed without fear" Dr., Riley con
cludes. "Thc need for care is cmpha-
sized to make this eating pleasure
safe, not to discourage the use OF
wild rabbits as food. In fact, tho
meat provides valuable food elements
and can be used in place of rationeC
foods to supplement restricted war
time diets"
