nates $ fo that Lemberg , the Capital City of Ru{Jia t loft 
a vaft Number of its Inhabitants, and many tofave their 
Lives were forc’d to fly from it. In Autumn it fpread 
in the neighbouring Places that lye to the Weft and 
South, beginning in a Village called Radymno , on this 
ft 4 de Jariflow , and afterwards invading other Places 
leated betwixt the Rivers San and Volodarora , it fpread

This Approach made us very apprehenfive of Dan- 
ger : Publick Prayers were order'd in our Churches 5 and 
our Magiftrates at the fame time left nothing undone 
that could tend to our common Safety. Commerce and 
Communication with the Infe&ed, and even fufpeded 
Places, were forbid : No fort of Merchandize or Effe&s 
that came from fuch Places was allowed Entrance, efpe- 
cially fuch forts of Goods as might eafily receive and 
retain the Contagion j as Wooll raw Leather, Furrs, 
Beds, &c. All Strangers and Travellers were ftri&ly 
examin’d, and none permitted to enter without fufficient 
Proofs, that they came from Places healthy and not in- 
fetfted. All our Inhabitants were caution’d neither to 
hold Correfpondence with, nor, on any pretence what- 
foever, to harbour thofe of infe&ed Place?, or to go to
