He belicved thn: the small- pox was communicated in the air, and that was Dr. Riley’s opinion. It would nut serve any good purpose, he thought, to wesignate houses where it existed. He proceeded to com- ment upon the RAroship and danger to life in dragging small-pox patients from their homes to # spall pox hospital. .
