There have been only 18 }eases in Butler since the epidemic started. There are now only 15 cases | under quarantine and on five of them the quarantine will be lifted on Sat- . urday. This number, with the three already released from quarantine, makes 8 released, and by Saturday it is confidently expected that the num- ber under quarantine will be reduced |to 10. That the quarantine regula- tions are being rigidly enforced and the epidemic is well in hand is evi- ,denced by the fact that there has ‘not been a single case of small pox tracable to those in Butler broken | out within the past two weeks. All 'those afflicted with the disease in ' Butler are getting along fine and in ‘most cases it has been in the mildest ‘form. Board of Health, E. N. Chastain J. W. Crabtree J. M. Christy. Ww. D.
