A FALSE ALARM 
Manchester Small Pox Report Turned Out to 
be Only a Scare 
Manchester had a small pox scare the 
past week, but fortunately it turned out 
to be only a scare, for after quick and 
efficient work on the part of the board of 
health it was found that the case in hand 
was not small pox. 
Monday morning Dr. R. T. Glen- 
denning was called to the the coal barge 
at Knight’s wharf to attend a little child, 
son of Robert E. Ramsey, colored. 
Ramsey was in charge of the barge, and 
his wife and year-and-a-half old son lived 
there with him. Dr. Glendenning felt 
at once the case was one which called 
for immediate action and he accordingly 
called on the board of health. Dr. 
Blaisdell, of the board, decided that the 
case was one which must be treated with 
care. It looked like small pox. The 
barge was immediately quarantined, and 
the state board of health was called upon 
by telephone. Dr. Hitchcock came out 
that afternoon. Chairman Knight and 
the board of health decided on Wednes- 
day to call an expert and Dr. Thomas 
Shea, in charge of the contageous hos- 
pital ah the city of Boston, a specialist on 
small pox and other contageous diseases 
came out. He decided the case was 
not small pox; neither was it ciphtheria; 
nor chicken pox. It was a contageous 
disease, but not of the character first 
thought. The local board of health im- 
mediately called off the quarantine, and 
the barge was released to leave at its 
Meanwhile the precaution had been 
taken against the spread of the disease in 
case it proved to be of a serious nature. 
The children who had been at the wharf 
and played with the colored child were 
taken from school and steps were taken 
to guard further against a spread of the 
disease. 
Dr. Glendenning, too, had sent cul- 
tures to the state board of health and they 
made the return that it was not small 
pox; nor diphtheria. The cultures sent 
to Dr. Shea were analyzed and Dr. Shea 
was heard from this morning, the return 
being practically the same as mentioned 
above. 
Thus, the scare is over and Manches- 
ter has nothing to be frightened over. It 
is good to see the active measures taken 
by the local board of health, however, to 
guard against anything that might arise 
in this connection.
