Excerpt from Sixth Annual Report of the State Board of Health of Wisconsin, 1881 Fever. The number Of deaths reported as resulting from this dis order is between five hundred and six hundred. It has shown no marked malignity except in one or two localities, and these, it is worthy Of notice, were in a district where the residents insist on close intercommunication with each other, regardless Of sickness or health. A communication from the clerk of a local board of health in connection with his formal report has a special interest in this regard, and we quote from it as follows: I have been trying to waken our board to some sense Of their duty, but have failed to such an extent that one member thereof, who lost a child by Scarlet Fever, had public funeral services held in the town hall, which services were attended largely by the children Of the public school! Need it be said that Scarlet Fever prevailed quite extensively thereafter? Notwithstanding this the school went on, although child after child was taken sick and taken away, until at the close Of the term only five were in attendance. I blame no one, but mention the facts to show the indifference generally prevailing hereabouts in regard to such matters.
