Excerpt from Recent Researches Relating to the Etiology and Specific Treatment of Yellow Fever I say in my report: The mucous membrane of the stomach is always found to be more or less hyper emic; the congestion commonly is not general, but is confined to smaller or larger spots or districts, in which it is observed to proceed from one or more centers. From these centers it extends or radiates in a lesser degree, either gradually to be lost or to pass over to another congested district.

Excerpt from Yellow Fever: Etiology, Symptoms and Diagnosis The claims, by various authors up to 1890, of having discovered the specific cause of yellow fever, were all effectually disposed of by the investigations of Sternberg. Since that time several investigators have reported finding the specific causative agent; but it is notable that no two of the micro organisms for which this claim was made were identical, and since only one could be the specific organism, it is evident that the others could have no real claim to specificity.

Excerpt from The Etiology of Yellow Fever: A Preliminary Note Taken in connection with Case 11, in which we have been unable to find any other source of infection than the bite of an infected mos quito, five days preceding the attack, the case of Dr. C. (case 10, Table III) becomes strongly confirmatory of the same origin. We will now briefly give the history of the third case of yellow fever that has occurred at Columbia Barracks during the period August 17 to October 13, 1900. In the light of Cases 10 and 11, we consider this case of sufficient importance to be here included, especially as it is one that might be possibly designated as a case of accidental infection by a mosquito.

Excerpt from A History of the Diagnosis, Pathology and Treatment of Yellow Fever When yellow fever first began its ravages in the south, Louisville declared against quarantines, opened wide her doors, and bade the fleeing refugees from the plague-smitten districts to come and freely partake of her hospitality. It soon became evident that among the many refugees who came to our city that cases of yellow fever would occur; and the mayor and board of health speedily set about preparing a suitable hospital for the reception and treatment of such cases.
