Get a Held Here, o
At a meeting of the town
fathers Tuesday night steps were '
taken at once to secure a place -
suitable for a pest house, in or-
der that we would be prepared
in case we get a single case of
smallpox here. j
Mayor Geo. W Means on the
a.
part of the town, Mr; Jno. P Al-
lison and Dr. R S Young were
appointed as a committee to rent5
or buy a suitable'- place for the

of the great liability of the dis
ease here, being so near Salis
bury, which place now has sev-!
enteen genuine case and thirty- j
five in the house of detention.
