No New Cases In Freedom

NO NEW CASES IN FREEDOM

A Freedom correspondent writes" There are no new smallpox cases here and aside from those who were exposed before the nature of the disease was known, no new cases have developed. Four or five of the 11 patients have been very sick and three are yet, but if they do not take cold it is very likely that all will recover. Dr. Kapp, the physician, has used great care and precaution to prevent others from taking the disease and Supervisor Dettling and the township board of health have done everything they could for the safety of our people and also to make the unfortunate patients as comfortable as possible. Mrs. Hieber is the only member of the family of seven who did not have the disease.
