Small Pox in
Levy Dr. E.
Lartigue returned yesterday
from Morriston, Levy
County, where he went to look after the small pox situation in that
county. He
gathered in some twenty-five or more patients and placed them in a pest
house
down there. There seems to be more cases in that county than in any
county the
doctor has in charge. In speaking of the situation in this county, Dr.
Lartigue
stated to the reporter that there were now no cases and that he would
close up
the pest house in the county provided no new cases developed. –
